The Present and Dimples had a busy day that involved lots of getting dirty. After dinner, I took them both up to take a bath. Dimples has not been the biggest fan of bath time lately so I put her in, washed her up, got her out and dried her off. While I was putting her into her jammies, The Present got into the tub. He LOVES bath time and can, and will, stay in until I evict him by draining the tub.
Tonight I was tired, so I let The Present just play in the tub after he was clean. Dimples was running around in her jammies and I was sitting on the floor, clipping my nails, only half paying attention.
Next thing I know, both Dimples and The Present are CRACKING up. I will never forget it. When your children make each other belly laugh....well there is no feeling that explains it. I just watched them, Dimples would throw her binky in the tub and The Present would toss it out on the floor. Repeat. Laugh lots and lots.
This went on for about 3 minutes, I kept thinking I needed to run down and get the video camera, but I didn't want the moment to end. I guess I am left with the memory, in hopes that it will last in my mind for years to come.
As I sat there, I wondered.
Did Miss Smarty Pants and I have moments like these when we were young?
Did my mom sit and smile at us with tears in her eyes like I did tonight?
Will there be lots of these silly moments in our future?
I hope so.

Yes, you and Smarty Pants did things like that often...sit and share a found binkie (after you gave them up) and laugh; sit under the sink in the Florida bathroom and share secrets and laugh; flush something down the toilet and wave bye bye and laugh and laugh...I wasn't sitting on the floor to watch...just standing and observing...and loving it...
