What I Love about 2 Year Old Boys

2 year old boys say "Hi Gramma!"

with more excitement than anyone else

in the world greets me.

When walking past other folks porches

they go to investigate all the pumpkins,

 try to pick them up

and hopefully say "My punkin, Gramma?"

Everything they see is so exciting

and  "why" is their favorite question.

They love BIG trucks

and TRACTORS!

They say innocently when leaving

my house "Now I want to go see Grandpa!"

not knowing the stab that goes in my heart.

If the Grandma gets too wild while playing 

they scold her and say "NO, Gramma, no

fall down!"

If they can't see me for a few seconds 

they scramble up from their play and come

seeking me out, 

my time with them is too precious to be wasted!

They still snuggle and love to be cuddled

but the kisses are now labeled "jucky".

All the people they love are called

"my_________"

as if they own the world and all the love in it.

They like to make sure all the dolls 

have "bankys" so they can be "cozy".

Best of all when they run their whole body

swings with that 2 year old rhythm

and they can run so "FAS".

Love you my Precious 2 year old!
