I have a few things that remind me of my children, and are very special to me. They are on top of our piano, and a couple of times Tucker has tried to move them. In an effort to help him understand how special these little trinkets are to me, I explained how each of them of them was given to me by someone whom I love, and that they reminds me of my children.
This one Toph bought for me for our anniversary right after Tucker was born, and reminds me of Tuck–
This one Amy bought for me for my birthday last year, and reminds me of my Trubee–
So the past few weeks, I have been noticing that this little dog kept ending up upstairs on the piano, next to Tuckers statue.
I never see the children playing with him, so I have carried it back down the play animal bin, quite a few times, but didn’t think to much about it, until I went to pick it up again the end of last week.
Tucker said, Mom, I keep that dog there, next to mine, so that it will remind me, that we need to get a dog. Cause that’s where we put our important things right?
Right-o. I wonder how long that dog collection is going to keep him satiated? I am going to keep that little dog there next to the statue, so I can remember my sweet boy, and his dedication to things that he wants, and wants to remember.
