Jude Says

Okay so it's been a while. 

It may be a while again. 

I decided that it might be a good idea to write down all the funny things Jude says here since I am "here" all the time, or a lot of the time. Online that is. For the past year I have been writing them down in Jude's TODAY book, but it is easy to slack on that since he is saying longer and longer sentences and because it takes a million years to write longhand and by the time I finish writing it or get around to it, he has already said something else. Anyway, the idea is to keep both going.

So, tonight at a family friends house for bathies: Big beautiful spa tub. All well. Clean Jude.He stays in the tub so he can watch the water swirling down the drain, so he can say "night night Labeaux!" (water). Studies the transaction between gravity and water. The sound here is different somehow, richer, deeper than the tub at home. "Bath fart," he states. 

Yes, that must be it.

Tonight in his bed: "Mama sleep high"

I curl up beside him on the mattress. We are face-to-face, breathing in tandem.

"No Mama nose! Mama move nose! Mama sleep down there."

I return to the body pillow perched beside his bed.

"Mama sleep high."

And so it goes.
