My buddy fell asleep in my arms today.

At my friend's preschool today, we took a long walk to different park than we usually go to. My (now) 21-month old buddy Tamir made friends with a cute little girl of about three. They slid together, went "vroom vroom" together at the play structure "steering wheel," and in general had a great kid time. On the way home, Tamir got cranky and tired of walking. I wound up picking him up and carrying him. I started humming a tune to the rhythm of my walking, and he fell asleep on my shoulder about seven or eight blocks from "home." I'm enjoying his language development big time. Today he said "c'mon" and demanded that I come down the slide after him (I did). On some days I'm still writing down the words and "duos" (two word utterances) he uses "at school." A satisfying morning.
