"Look, numbers!"
Today was relatively uneventful, however tonight was awesome, as I celebrated the first night of Hanukkah by giving Gabriel his present. It. Was. Awesome.
For the past couple of years I've been holding onto a desk and chair set that belonged to my brother when he was a wee one. We tend to take really good care of our stuff, so when my parents moved, I immediately snagged them, as I thought someday it'd be a good gift for Adeline. It turned out that she's not that much of a desk girl and I don't blame her; she cozies up to the table quite well and can curl up almost anywhere, even upside down, to read a book, and she likes it that way. But it did occur to me that Mister Bun would one day grow to just the right size, so it became his in my mind.
Tonight he got it and while he was merely amused with his new thing, Mom and Dad were incredibly touched and began taking adorable photos immediately. It's a perfect fit and too cute for words. My work here is done, for I am Johanna, doer of good things where kidlets are concerned.
