So I am watching how Brennon is growing. He is doing more stuff like pulling himself up, sitting up and playing with toys. It is like his personality is developing. He is generally a happy baby. I hear him laugh and babble as much as I hear him cry. He says dada alot. This morning as I kissed him goodbye I heard dada. We are working on mama. Having a baby is a big blessing. I feel like I can influence him and he looks up to me. I just want to have fun with him right now though. Holly gets to see him alot in the summer now. I can tell going back to work is going to be hard.

I was thinking about perspective. I wonder how he will see the world. I am hoping to teach him about comparing himself to others. Our neighborhood has a Lamborghini and a high school kid recently got a $50,000 BMW. I wonder if Brennon is going to think he has to do without even though he has so much. When he goes to school he will be surrounded by an upper class. Will he want a BMW when he turns 16? Hopefully not. I think though as parents Holly and I consider character a very high priority. Who knows, he may be able to teach his friends humility. He has so much living to do. It is all unwritten. That is so cool.

Of course the fun is in playing with him. He has books and some toys. Holly has him watching Sesame Street. It hasn't changed much since I was a kid. I think Elmo though has become the star. I remember actually learning stuff on Sesame Street. Then the Electric Company was cool cause it had music and Spider Man. Oh, then 3-2-1 Contact came on. That was more of a science show. Science is fun to do. Of course once you throw math into it people tend to not like it anymore. I suppose that is why those shows were replaced by Barney and Dora. Of course I wonder how Barney sings he loves me and makes me love him though he has never seen me. Ack. We are a happy family. Yes. We. Are. A. Happy. Family.
