Yellow Room

You said you liked the yellow room today!! Yeah! You just moved up last week and you were having a bit of a tough time. The transition has actually gone much more smoothly then I expected. Every move up (lets see - this is your 5th move) have been hard on you. You started in the baby room then moved to the walker room, on to the blue room and then the green room and now the yellow room. And bonus...Yellow is your favorite color! I have to say for me it is a bit frightening. Some of those kids in the yellow room are big and ruff! I so clearly remember carrying you to the baby room and watching the moms lead their kids into the yellow room and in my head I was thinking how glad  I was to still have you as a baby.  I couldn't even imagine you getting to this age and I didn't want you to get to this age. But with every month you become even more amazing.  And now here I am. I have really tried to savor your childhood as much as I can. Life is busy though and it is easy to get caught up in the daily cycles.

I think yesterday's moment when I came to pick you up from daycare will be forever burned in my head. It makes me laugh to myself when I conjure it up.  You put on a spider man costume and then stood tall with your hands on your hips in a true superman pose. It was hilarious - mostly, because that was your one and only pose. I couldn't see your eyes clearly through the mask, but I knew exactly what face you were making.
