I like to spend time with him

I think Moses's top love languages are quality time and gifts. Quality time because he seems to always be asking to spend time with us and inviting us to play together. He even brings his toys for us. And he remembers who gave him which toys. I think it really is special to him. Low on the list is touch and words of affirmation. I think acts of service are kind of in the middle because he likes to do things for others, but I wonder if that's kind of a phase and not necessarily one of his main love languages. 

We snuggled together tonight and we had a long discussion about baby Eden. He told me about how she's "gonna pop out" and [gesturing toward my chest], he said "that's her spot," meaning, that's where she'll be. (How does he know!?) I told him about how small she's going to be and that she's going to need a lot of help. And he said milk will help her. He told me he doesn't like when babies chew on boy toys (his cars is what he was meaning, I think). I told him we can probably teach her not to do that, and that there will be so many things we can teach her. I also told him that he will always be my favorite little boy, my special Moses, even after Eden comes. He seemed to get it. 

It's past 9:30 pm now, and he just came out to snuggle with me. What is he doing up so late?? I wonder if his little brain is staying up processing out heart-to-heart. He's the sweetest kid ever. When I told hinge needed to go to bed, at first he said he didn't want to, but when I insisted it was time for bed, he told me, "it's okay, we can snuggle tomorrow."

Love that kid.
