A few things about our favorite toddler around here.
He changes so quickly that something that is an every day huge part of life could disappear in a month, and we’d all forget about it. Just the other day Tom and I were talking about how E used to “hide” things behind his ear when he was younger - something he doesn’t do anymore. So I’m leaving this here so I can better remember this moment of life.
