It's a Golden Life

So whoever said that childproof cabinet locks are actually, in any way, childproof is definately-wrong! I walk into the bathroom, mind you I had 5 minutes previous-cleaned it, and to my wonder and delight, my little man is sitting on the floor with his head leaning against the wall drinking his sippy cup, binky in hand, as if he was exhauseted. The half a roll of toilet paper was sitting in a neat pile on the floor, instead of it's designated ROLL. Dryer sheets lay around him. The "locked" cabinet belongings were placed in appropriate spots all over the floor. He stands up, smiles and hands me the sunblock with a "could you open this so I can squirt it all over the walls?" look. Of course I laughed at him, picked everything up, again, and SHUT the door!

Halloween! Yes, I realized how pointless it was to take out a one year old, who can't understand "trick or treating" or dressing up. But I thought he looked pretty stinkin cute. He had fun! Instead of getting candy from the people handing it out, he left mom and dad looking like dum dums holding a batman head while their son checked out the shrubbery! He would've rather played in the leaves and bushes than get candy! What a kid-

So, I know this little kid. He is pretty amazing. You'd think that by one year old, a child would know so much! But you don't stop to think that-hey there's a whole lot to know in this life. I didn't realize how much knowledge is in this world~! This little kid continues to amaze me everyday with new personality perks. I thought that he would be.."just like mom, or just like dad" but he's really not. He is his own person. Although I think he looks cute in all the clothes I put on him, he really doesn't give a darn. He would be naked for all he cared. I tested this concept the other morning. Down here in Arkansas we are having some pretty not so ordinary November weather. Just when we thought it would snow- it's almost 80 degrees. So I took Malachi out to check the mail-in just a diaper and he didn't mind the extra breeze.The fact of the matter is that he doesn't care what kind of clothes he has on, the brand of his shoes or even the brand ...
