KIRKMAN FAMILY

Just so I don't forget...

Treks imagination continues to soar... At the ripe age of 2 he often pretends to be a baby, patting at me and making incomprehensible sounds.

Canyon has fallen in love with fishing and has quite a bit of patience... for being only 4. He loves everything about it. Even gutting it. Trek on the other hand names the fish and doesn't quiet embrace the permanence of fishing.

The other day we were visiting Gram's house and Canyon & Gram had this conversation:


Canyon: Grandma, do you know how to make cookies at your house?


Grandma Orina: Yes, I do.


Canyon: pause... Show me.


____________________


Canyon and Trek are becoming good friends, making up games, building forts, jumping on the tramp, holding hands, cuddling in bed. Trek idolizes and emulates Canyon and Canyon nurtures and protects Trek.


_____________________


Canyon stayed up till 10pm reading books in our closet with a flashlight while Trek and I fell asleep in our bed (Gary is out of town for a summer internship-so our sleeping arrangements are sporadic).


______________________


Trek's reference to size is identified as baby or daddy. Occasionally he will throw in a brother size, but rarely a mama size.


______________________


Trek still considers growling a viable form of communication.
