I just had to share a silly update. Wade usually puts Ian to bed, and for a long time now (maybe 6 months or more), he's had a hard time when I say goodnight to him and walk away (I usually said goodnight in his room and left him with Wade to be put down for bed). It breaks my heart every time. In the last few weeks we've started a new routine where after he's bathed and in his PJ's we come out into the living room and read a few picture books (I quiz him, where are certain animals, objects, etc.). Anyways, I starting saying goodnight to him in the living room, kissing him and telling him goodnight and go with dad... and he usually cries and reaches for me as Wade carries him away. Again, broke my heart and I'd have to look away. Well, not anymore. Last night he acted a little sad when I hugged and kissed him goodnight, but he didn't cry when he left me. And tonight he wasn't sad at all when I kissed him goodnight, and he then happily walked away from me, took Wade's hand and walked down the hall. It made me so happy and sad at the same time. It's just one example of many milestones he's making at this age, and it goes so fast.
