I'm Back!!!

I know, I know. Its been a while since I've posted anything. I'd apologize, except I'm not really sorry.

You see the reason for my extended absence is this:

1. My family needs my undivided attention

2. School has me around the neck, with studying, and projects left to right!

3. Work is a never ending political force that has taken over me, and threw me into a whirlwind.

4. More importantly, I have been watching my 2 little blessing grow! (Kevin Jr, and Kimmora)

so forgive me kindly!

So Kevin Jr is now 15 months. ( I hate counting the months after a yr, but just to be informative, there you go.) As he gets closer to the midpoint of his toddler career .. (18 months) I find it that he demands and more so DESERVES tons and tons of attention.

Random: even when he is misbehaving, he melts my heart. You can't help but to love the little guy.

The changes that I am watching in this remarkable being is beyond amazing. I don't think I would even be able to explain in words the depths of joy he brings upon us, our family.

He's 25 lb... 30 in. So he's growing in height, but for the past few months, he has been solid with his weight. He's mastering new skills every second it seems like. Its flabbergasting to walk into your home from a long days work and hear a joyful "Hi" come from someone you created. Your own flesh and blood. We just love to watch him prance around the house happily and noisily exploring his BIG world. I love when he comes over to me or his Father, or auntie Mora, and ask us to 'Mon (come on) and follow him to a toy or something he wants in general. It's amazing how fast they catch on to things.

His vocabulary is exuberant for a 1 y.o.! He understands basic instructions, and he now responds faithfully and quickly to the voices and tones I, his father, and caretakers use habitually. He often mimics them back to us, causing us to burst in laughter, knowing that's the wrong thing to do.

He is a powerful force to be reckoned with! He is small and in charge!

He has learned how to give kisses. He's very stingy and reluctant on who he gives his love to, so when I'm the chosen one. he makes me feel like a million bucks!!!!

Even now, I think about the man he will become someday. I think about the things he will do and accomplish. The goals he will set, the triumphs he will enjoy, the failures he will endure. I think about the people he will know and love, and the challenges he will face and overcome. I think about them, and they give me hope. Because I know my son will become better than every man he comes across. Because we instilled faith and encouragement in him.

Until then, he's still my baby boy!!

I promise to keep my readers updated in the New Year,

Until then Happy Holidays,
