Oscar is talking in sentences. Most of his sentences are in third person. "Aker get it." "Aker's turn." "Aker really up high." "Aker put it on." He is adorable. I love that I understand him more, and that he can ask for what he needs.
Yesterday, I thought he repeated me saying, "that was a good idea Oscar." When he was really asking to eat a quesadilla. It took a moment, but we figured it out. There are also moments when we are so in tune that we don't even need to use words, I just know, or he just knows. Yesterday, I was carrying Oscar home and the wind was blowing hair in my face, he looked at me, said, "oh!" and reached up to brush the hair out of my face. I said nothing, but "thank you Oscar." Such a tender moment, that filled my heart with joy.
Sort of unrelated, but wanted to share. I feel like have hit a stride with being a mom. That doesn't mean I have this motherhood thing figured out. In fact, if there is one thing I have learned as a mom, is that you can never really have it all figured out. What I am trying to get across is that I am comfortable in my own skin as a mother. I feel more at ease with this role I have had for nearly two years.
