Bob

Of all the times my son can work my last nerve, there are a million other times he does something that just touches my heart. Recently we were at a park and we found a ladybug. I asked for his name and he said "Bob". He stared at it so intently and just watched it crawl over his fingers. Well, he decided to then take Bob down the slide but Bob flew away mid-journey. He looked at me with his hands out, shrugged his shoulders and asked "Bob?" I told him Bob flew home, he repeated me, and then went on down the slide. Such a cute interest in that ladybug made me forget all about the tantrum he threw that morning...
