Isaiah's Gift

I got a call from my sister Nicole this morning *what a great way to start the day!* She called and invited me over to see her and the boys before I went to work and, of course, I agreed! As I was driving over I was getting so excited. You see, I absolutely LOVE playing with my little nephew Isaiah. He'll be two in just a few months and he is LOADS of fun. When I walked in the door he started screaming with excitment and gave me the biggest hug *heart melted*. After we played for a while I sat to hold Baby Elijah who is almost three months already. How time flies. He was in a good ol' mood smiling - even laughing. I raised him in the air and he laughed. I brought him back down, bitting his tummy and he laughed all the more *so much fun!* Since I was enjoying my time with Baby Eli, Isaiah started coloring while watching "Yo Gabba-Gabba." It's one of his favorite shows. He drew the picture I posted above. The thing that got me was that earlier, he was putting things in my jacket pocket and I'd take them out, he'd put things in, and I'd take them out, like a game. Each time he put something in my pocket he'd laugh and wave his hands in the air with delight. When I finally got to work this morning I felt something crumpling in my pocket. I knew I took everything out when he put it in, but my baby put his picture in my pocket and WITH his yellow crayon. I KNOW he didn't put them there during our 'game' because I was sure to get everything out as soon as he put it in, so I'm thinking he snuck in this little love gift, just for his Tia Kristie. And for him to part with his yellow crayon??? I tell you, the boy LOVES to color and he loves his crayons...and he gave me his picture AND his crayon? *Awwwwe...* Amazing how an almost two year old can make my heart dance and make me feel so loved. I love you too, Isaiah!
