Friends

I'm sitting cuddling Declan on the steps at daycare this morning. In comes Alexis and her Mom who proceeds to sit down beside and cuddle Alexis. 

So sweet, she looks at Declan and then at me and says "Deckan". 

Her Mom says "that's right, that's Declan".

Then Alexis counts to five using her fingers as she goes.

Declan imitates her and he shows me counting with his fingers.

Alexis's Mom then had to go and so the tears started as she said goodbye. As she leaves Alexis walks to Kelly crying loudly the whole way and then Declan starts. I looked at him. "Are you upset that I have to go or that she just left?"

He just kept with the tears so I hugged him and gave him a kiss, said goodbye and left Kelly with two crying toddlers. She's really good at her job.

When Tyler picked Declan up from daycare there was only one of his little friends still there: Ella. Once Tyler had Declan dressed and ready to go Declan shouts back "bye Ella"!

So cute, saying bye to his little friends like a big boy. So grown up.
