In Buddy's world, he is the leader of the dogs and he laughs merrily as they follow the trail of crumbs he scatters from his snack cup. "Aggie" he says, and buries his face in Maggie, our golden retriever's fur.
Soup cans, unopened sampler candles and applesauce containers are all prime candidates for being made into towers. "Uh-oh", he says, as the leaning towers fall over.
It's a world where batteries, rocks and dog food are thought of as acceptable objects to be chewed on, and it's quite maddening when Mom tries to put an end to it.
Words can be few and far between, but random kisses are frequent and shows of affection happen often, especially to the ladies.
Giggles abound when Rosie plays peekaboo with him in the backseat of the car. No one makes him smile and laugh like his sister!
At 15 months old, Buddy's world is changing by the day. Every day he is becoming more of a toddler than a baby. Seeing the world through my kids' eyes reminds me that the best things in life are simple, and that it's the simple times that I will remember and treasure the most.
