Monday Moments

March 4, 2013 by Anna 3 Comments

Sometimes I worry about what Kristopher will do with himself when Gemma heads to school in September.  He already spends much of his day entreating me, “Plaaaay with me!”, his lower lip quivering and eyes filling before I even start to respond, prepared for all-out dramatic hysterics if I say “Not right now”, or some other such wounding words.

But when Gemma isn’t around and the house and toys are his, he pleasantly surprises me.

And maybe makes me a little concerned that my mild OCD is carrying on in my offspring.

I think there’s a career direction being foretold here, I’m just not entirely sure what that career might be.  Let’s keep the suggestions positive, shall we? :)

    Hopefully it doesn’t mean he will be in a line up when he is older ;) Seems his cousin Lucas had the same organizational tendencies. Maybe they can go into business together :) And, by the way, that is a lot of people!

    1. That’s a LOT of Little People!
    2. Our boys could go into business together – that is EXACTLY the sort of thing Aaron does for fun… I’ve honestly had people ask/comment about OCD :) you can always tell when Aaron’s been in a room.

      Yes, we inherited huge collection of Little People from older cousins! This is a new trait for Kristopher…usually you know he’s been in a room for much less organized reasons, so I’m hoping this trend continues!
