Caeden's New Bike

So here is our little man, Caeden, who is now 3 years old on his first ever bike ride! Go Caeden, Go! We love you!

Happy Thought...Thanks Mom!

The other day I was in Caeden's room with both the boys. I was playing with Dash on Caed's bed making sure he didn't fall off and Caeden was on the floor setting up his train tracks. Dash noticed some decorative pictures on the wall and was trying to get them off the wall, I then removed one so he could safely touch it and check it out. I told Dash that I painted these pictures for him and his brother before they were both born. I then pointed out the different things on the picture telling him what each thing was, then out of the blue I hear Caeden say something, at first I thought he said something about making his trains do something, and when I repeated it to him, he shook his head no and said it again, he said, "Thanks for making that Mom." And then I realized he was thanking me for painting the pictures for their wall. I was blown away by his sweetness and thoughtfulness to thank me for that. Wow! That comment went a long way for me that day. Small things and moments like that are the greatest treasures of my life. Thanks for being you Caeden! I love you! Mommy

Spiderman says "I love you!"

Wow! I never saw it or realized it, but our 2 1/2 year old, Caeden discovered it today, and boy was it a cool thing for him and for us. Today, Caeden was playing with one of his puzzles, it's a Spiderman puzzle with various pictures of action shots. So, as he was putting it together he saw it, Spiderman was holding up his hand and in sign language saying "I love you!" And he came running to the kitchen to show me. And he was right, Spiderman was saying "I love you!" I showed Dave and we both smiled when we saw the picture. In our "grown-up" way of seeing it, Spiderman was just throwing a spiderweb from his wrists, but to our little person's way of seeing it, he only saw an "I love you!" And, how did he know it was the sign language for "I love you", because we use it all the time in our house and he knows how to do it. He was truly amazed and loved that Spiderman was saying "I love you!", and who knows maybe he really is and is just casting out a web of love. Thanks Spiderman! Thanks Caeden for your discovery. I love you! Love, Mom
