For Colton

(Not that I can envision you checking blogs.)

I wanted you to know that "boy-boy" has not forgotten the lessons you've taught him.
Several times a week, he insists on eating directly from a bowl on the floor:He completes this ensemble by crawling around on all fours, barking, and licking us.

And, like you, he loves meat.

During dinner, he often demands in a low grunt, "meeeat."
When we ignore his request because he isn't asking nicely, a low voice belts, "MO' MEAT!"
When that still doesn't work, his voice returns to it's sweet, natural octave, "more meat pwease mama." He promptly scarfs the food and skips off to hug, kiss and baby-talk to "Lila."

It's true! he's obsessed with Coco.

He loves his coco pajamas, and when I brought out a snow hat for him to wear, he immediately got excited and yelled "Coco!" and hasn't taken it off since. Also, when we told him that Coco loves green beans, he started eating them. I'm told I already overuse this strategy.
