Yesterday afternoon, Tyler was playing quietly on the floor, over by his toy bins. Kevin was on the couch, and I was wandering aimlessly around the living room. I was going to go over to Tyler, but Kevin and I have talked about letting him be when he’s playing quietly by himself, instead of constantly bugging him. So I decided to just sit down on the floor in front of the recliner. Tyler looked up and saw me sit down there. He jumped up, threw his arms in the air and got a big smile on his face. He toddled over, threw himself on me, and after I gave him a great big squueze and set him back down, he went back to the toy he had been playing with.
It was so incredibly sweet that he stopped his play just to come over and get a hug from me, and then went back to playing. God I love that little guy….
