Every year on March 1, I breathe a sigh of relief. We made it. Winter's nearly over. It might as well be spring now, as far as I'm concerned. Any winter storms we have? Well they're just a pre-spring tussle. Besides, with as incredibly mild as this winter's been, it's felt like spring here for, oh, pretty much the entire winter. Wooooooo! I can handle winters like this. Today for instance, its already 40 d egrees outside, and its not even 10. Ahhhh, bliss, winterstyle.
Gavin has been emoting like crazy. He'll smack the floor and say "mad" with a frowny face. Or he'll look like he wants to cry and say "dad" which means sad. Sometimes he'll want to cuddle when sad and other times he seems embarrassed and runs off to a corner and hides.
It's odd, how self-conscious he is, really. He gets embarrassed when we ask him to sing or dance, or if he catches us watching him sing or dance when he thinks he's alone. It's a little funny, but it's odd. We /aren't sure where it comes from, as we've never laughed at him fordoing that. Is self-consciousness an in-born trait? Are we all naturally that way?
Well we're off to the store now to buy a few things. besides I can't keep Gavin off the desk and he won't stop trying to help me type!
