I found myself thinking about how he loved this book the morning after we buried him. I went to start writing down all the things I remembered about his love for this book, and that's when I decided to start a new blog instead.
Daniel and David (the star of these books) were kindred spirits! I am sure most little boys could relate to David in one way or another, but the things Daniel and David had in common were numerous. My big kids always said the titles should be, "Daniel Gets In Trouble" or "No Daniel", instead of David. Sweet boy.
Daniel spent a decent amount of time in time out. Mostly for pinching us to get our attention. So every time he picked up this book he would kiss David sitting in time out. :-) He felt his pain! Lol.
We cleaned up at least 10 water spills a day...
"Poopy" and "wee-wee" were two of his most clear and favorite words. I'm not sure he got this from his daddy though...
And he always stuck his hand in the cake...no matter who's cake it was. We tried to snap photos before he got his little paws in there. If you look closely at this photo, Daniel's hand is already full of blue frosting and Lizzy is holding him by the wrists to keep him from grabbing again. :)
And he was always sorry. Always. He gave kisses and hugs and begged for forgiveness.
I would love to clean up after any of things again. I miss you Little Buddy.
