Blackberries for Breakfast

Someone had blackberries at breakfast today.

IMG_0370Note the purple streaks up his arms and all over his lips. He normally doesn’t like to get messy while eating. You know those pictures with the kid covered in spaghetti? That would never be Dekker. Until today maybe. Normally, a grain of rice left on his chin would be removed before he’d take another bite. Until today. I apologize but there is noway I’m leaving out an of these pictures. If they all look the same to you, thats fine, but they’re all beautiful to me.

"I love you, mom and dad. Thanks for the berries!"

IMG_0392The end result: My messy son, covered in berries. He rubbed his hands in his hair, all over the front of his sleeper, and of course, every available inch of skin. Honestly, I think he really enjoyed it, which made me happy too. When it was all over, it was as though he already knew what was coming next. My boy willingly went into the bathtub and got good and cleaned up without barely a tear. Tear-free baths are not a common occurrence around here, and we were so grateful and proud of him!

Such a sweet boy.
