Last Friday

 Last Friday, Oliver came inside and asked me for his small brown pillow and his soft blanket.  After finding these things, he then went back outside to the porch and then soon returned and asked me if I wanted a pillow too.  I asked him why I needed a pillow and he replied, "so you can lay down and listen to the wind in the leaves." 
I have to remember times like these because there are many, many days that feel like all I do is discipline or put out tears. 

Little 3 year old man, I love all the days I'm given with you, and I will always love to listen to the wind in the leaves.
