Snowbear’s Birthday<\/b>
\nWell, unbeknownst to me, today was Snowbear’s birthday. Snowbear is the long-loved bear of my youngest son. He has many stuffed animal loves, but Snowbear came first. Just this week, I had a dream about Snowbear, myself. I dreamed that I was cradling him and singing him that song from Dumbo<\/i>, Baby of Mine<\/a> — that is, I thought it was a dream until I saw Snowbear on a makeshift pallet by my bed when I woke. #4 son informed me that Snowbear had really liked my singing to him. Weird.<\/p>\n

Anyway, like I was saying, today was Snowbear’s birthday. And, so, we celebrated.<\/p>\n

Snowbear had a makeshift tower of books to sit on.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

We drank Dr. Fizz. We ate Dum-dums.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

In fact, I think that Snowbear’s birthday may have been a ploy to get more Dum-dums.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Oh, how we love, LOVE Dum-dums.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Of course, 2 dum-dums are better than one. <\/p>\n

That is something that I just love about #4 son.
\nHe is a here-i-am-world-embrace-me kind of kid.
\nHe is passionate.
\nHe is imaginative.
\nHe believes in celebrating.
\nHe believes that more is better. <\/p>\n

And heaven help you if you want to convince him otherwise.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
