Let’s face it toddlers are messy buggers. As an attempt at executing one of my new year’s resolutions (Don’t sweat the small stuff.), I decided to capture these moments on camera instead of letting it get on my nerves (still did, a little). It was a good exercise for me. It had a stop and smell the roses feel to it. I suppose if I had never seen a box of oatmeal packets before, I too would find them fascinating and exciting. If you had never heard the sound of a glass measuring cup hitting (slamming) the wood floors (grrr), it would probably sound pretty cool. So the new me, enjoyed the moment. Ok, so the moment lasted about 5 minutes, then surprise! it was bathtime, playtime over. Also, I am sure there will be a day when it will take a lot more than oatmeal and some old magazines to make him happy. I will enjoy these sweet days.
