In the boys bathroom...

So, I've spent a lot of time in the boys bathroom these past three weeks. All I can say is that I hope that if/when I do have kids my first one is a girl. Needless to say boys are a little umm...gross. I've walked in to underwear on the head and other sights I won't mention on the Internet. See me for more funny stories. Today I shared a special moment with Andres. This kid is adorable- don't get me wrong, he has his moments. Today though he was the last kid on the potty after lunch. Alejandra and I were just waiting on him to make something happen in that pot. We sang songs, I danced around, even tickled him. Nothing. All of the sudden he bursts put with: MIRA! ARANA!" sure enough there was a daddy long legs. He just got so excited to see and observe it and even though we definitely saw it, he couldn't stop telling us to check it out. I caught one and held it in front of him- he loved holding the rolly-pollies last week but was not down for holding the spider. We told him adios as I placed him outside the window slat above the toilet. There were still tow others that he eyed closely. What a sweet gift to spend some time with Andres today and seeing how inquisitive and interested he is in the world around him. Makes me want to slow down and take time to observe the small things.
