Just a tidbit ....

Wyatt has skating lessons on Tuesday nights so even though he does not take a nap everyday, I really push it on Tuesdays. Otherwise, I am tickling his feet and threatening him not to fall asleep on the way to lessons. Anyhow, he asked me to lay with him for a couple minutes in bed and I thought, "What could it hurt, sure I will." Let me tell you, not much sleeping was done but there were some cute conversations.

Wyatt: Mom, are you sleeping?

Me: Not, yet. Why are you still talking?

Wyatt: My eyes can't close. Mom, why don't you lay there with your eyes closed and I will keep my eyes open so I can hear you.

Me: Wyatt, we hear with our ears, now close your eyes.

Wyatt: Well then I will read your lips. (I am thinking, did he really just say that, it even took me a minute to catch on. Anything to keep his eyes open!)

Needless to say, he did not have a nap but did well at skating.

Tonight we are having heavy rain come through and we went to the front door to watch the storm and I looked down and didn't know what was on the step. I thought maybe some animal left a deposit on our front steps. But after looking it was a big toad so we got a picture.
