I have a picture of Nate with all the kids at the airport, when he was going back to the war after the twins were born, as the wallpaper on my computer. Every time I turn my computer on Solvei and Nels come over and point at the screen and say “Daddy” and then get mad when I open a program because it covers the picture. There is also another picture at the bottom of our stairs of me, Nate, Saedi and Gavin. The twins like to sit on the bottom step all the time and when they see that picture (which is often) they always point out Daddy.
I have this in our entry hallway.
Today I came into the hall looking for Solvei because she had wandered out of the living room and hadn’t come back for a few minutes. I found her sitting on the floor in the hall squarely in front of these pictures, pointing to them saying “Daddy,” and grinning repeatedly.
Nels has figured out that he can climb onto the chairs all by himself. Now he won’t stay off the furniture. I can not take him into the living room without him climbing on the couch or chair. He is so proud of himself for doing it too. It’s so cute and such a pain all at the same time.
