Milestones for Oscar and Mamma




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.
