Yesterday we were sitting at the kitchen table and heard Jonathan yelling nonsense in his bathroom. Mike yelled at Jonathan to tell him to stop and Jonathan yelled back with yelling intonations in his voice, “I’m sorry Daddy. I was just trying to scare a fruit fly.”

Yesterday I gave James a sippy cup of water. Before drinking it he folded his arms and grunted. I was so happy.

Jonathan likes to call James “my baby.”

Jonathan enjoys chores as entertainment. He enjoys washing bowls in the sink. A spray bottle with water and a washcloth work wonders.
