So, I've posted before about Gabe and his toy "hoarding". He fills his bed with the most random things - coat hangers, slippers, shoes, toys, books, clothes, etc. And, before nap, he's always looking for a new thing to bring upstairs.
Gabe really likes the idea that Mommy naps, too. He wants to know that I'm upstairs and that he's not missing out on any fun. Sometimes I do nap (lately I've been napping a lot), and sometimes I can't. What I think is adorable, however, is that he'll bring a toy up for me, too, and he puts the toy on my side of the bed or on top of my pillow. He doesn't usually tell me that he's bringing me the toy, so I usually walk into my room to find some odd toy or other in my bed. And it always makes me smile.
Well, the other day, he took this little shirt that used to be on his stuffed alligator and tried to wrap it around my ankle to make me feel better. It was very thoughtful - he's been very sweet about my boo boos. Anyway, Gabe told me to wear the shirt around my ankle at night, too, so that it would heal. By the time I went to bed, I'd forgotten about the shirt. But, when I went up to bed this is what I saw:
my side of the bed - and the shirt near my pillow
he kills me
and here's a close up of the shirt
Don't you just love him?
