Buh-Buh

Shane new favorite these days is "Buh-buh." Depending on the situation, "Buh-buh" means: bubbles, ball, bye-bye, book, and probably a few more I've missed. I never realized how many household objects began with the letter "b" until his discovery. Recently after a routine rendition of "Jesus Loves Me" during our nap-time ritual, I laid Shane down as always. But this time, instead of rolling onto his side with thumb-in-mouth he gave me a huge smile and said, "Buh-buh" (including a wave). Taken by surprise I waved back with "Bye-bye" and closed the door with a big grin. He slept his routine two-hour nap and ever since has been telling us "Buh-buh" after being laid down. I really don't think I could ask for a better new ritual in our routine!

Summer Fun

It's summer in India and that means keeping cool from the raging sun. Fruit, Shane's all-time favorite, is a great summer snack. We play indoors to keep cool(er) and then retire in the late afternoon for a swim. Enjoy your Springtime in the meatime!
