We survived our early morning plane ride yesterday and are now deeply ensconced in the Deep South. Baby Liza is adorable and we're having a great time helping out and missing sleep.
Before coming, whenever we asked Sam who he was going to visit, he always neglected every member of the family except one - Eli. He was a little sad when we arrived and Eli was playing at a friends, but since Eli returned right before lunch, they've been playing together constantly.
Here's an example: This morning, Sam was in bed with us when Eli padded by on his way to his parents' room. We were trying to get Sam back to sleep but as soon as he saw Eli he declared, "Eli play trucks with Sam."
Yes, nothing is more important than being with Eli. But my favorite moment so far was when they were outside on the playset this morning. Sam was in the sandbox and Eli on the swing, when Sam suddenly got up and stood in front of the swiftly swinging Eli.
"Eli play in sandbox," Sam said.
"No! I'm swinging," responded Eli.
Sam thought about this for a moment before confidently stating, "Eli all done swinging!"
