Enjoying Mr. Creative

This week has been very low key, restful.  Lots of sitting by the pool listening to Asher. He knows a crazy amount of information about animals.  The book he's holding in the above picture is an encyclopedia of animals that he's had for several years.  It is well loved.  If you ask him to find you information on an animal, he flips to the appropriate section immediately.
 
He's creative and intuitive and kind and strong and extremely persevering.  Though I'm missing my connection and conversation with Abiel, Asher has stepped into the connecting and communicating role in the family and I'm enjoying this little man with all my heart.  I've never known anyone like him.  I'm so happy that he is my boy.  His name means "blessed, fortunate, and happy."  He is that and brings that to all who know him.
