After that we got dressed so the two of us could go out for a couple hours while Daddy did some cleaning. When Declan realized where we were headed he said "oh man, not a tree park." Well he was correct but we went on a nice long hike to Hilton Falls and he seemed to enjoy the adventure of looking for the falls.
We had a good time, findings acorns, hearing birds and seeing funny shaped trees.
Declan did trip along the way and scraped up both of his little knees. Daddy cleaned them both up soon as we got home. We were both pretty beat after our hour and a half trek.
Just after Declan's nap time I was on the phone with Poppa making plans for this Thursday. I told him that I had a little boy just dying to play in the sand. From across the room Declan looks at me, points his finger and says firmly "I'm not dying." I laughed and laughed.
After dinner we were hanging in the backyard on a tarp. Declan wanted pictures so I got close, turned the screen to us and Declan took the photos. When we turned the phone back around so we could look at them he stopped at this photo...
and said "That's love."
He's good.
And then he gets better.
I was getting him dressed in his pjs when he looks right at me and says "you're the best Mom."
He got hugs.
