Stone is 2.

Stone is 2 today. I know, it's hard to believe... Time really does seem to fly.

My mom is visiting. Mom, Stone and I went to the store. We were at Target where they had all kinds of stuffed toys for 75% off. He did not want a single one of them. We then went to Kroger (a grocery chain) and he found a stuffed animal there that he wanted. We were walking along and there was a 25%-50% off table. He grabbed a tiger off the table, cradled it in his arm and kept walking. So I told him that we were not buying it but he could carry it around if he wanted.

Once we got to the check out I told him he needed to give the tiger to the cashier. He did not want to, but eventually he gave her the tiger without complaint and said, "Byebye." He waved to the tiger and we left. How lucky am I?!

I know I have a stuffed tiger in the basement someplace. Perhaps I will go down there and find it today.
