We Just Wish He Showed His Emotions More

Today Carrie and I were working on the guest room. We have a few folks coming down over the next couple of months, so we thought we'd really make a push to get this place presentable. Hard work feels good, and we're really happy with the progress we made today, but we have this baby who loves to... help... us with our tasks. We thought today might be a good day to set him up with a book and a buddy for a bit while we tackled the two person jobs. We suspect it was a success, but we have no clue if Owen enjoyed it or not. The kid should start playing poker, because there's just no reading his face.

Hey Owen, you having a good time?

Brick wall central.

Owen, you like hanging out at your table reading you book?

We actually thought we saw some emotion this time, but we couldn't tell what it was, it was only for a fraction of a second.

Okay, buddy we're going to paint, give us a holler if you're not having a very good time.

Carrie and I are looking into getting him a gig working Buckingham Palace.

You know (and I mean you know) I love the color in his room! It suits him perfectly! ☀

And you're so right about Owen keeping his feelings close to the vest. That's the very first thing that's said whenever anyone meets him! :0)

I love you guys, Mom

I want his buddy! I woud be just as happy with a rainbow colored lion to hang out with. Jackson tells me that they can be quite entertaining (very sarcastic) when the tall people leave a room. Glad to see everyone is so happy. Miss you three!

Love, Jen
