It's really fun to see how Ben perceives the adult world as he begins his interest in becoming an adult.
A couple weeks ago when most of our family was fighting one sort of sickness or the other, I had a really bad cough for a few days. One evening at dinner as I was getting over my cough, Ben coughed really hard. It sounded like it hurt, actually.
When he was finished Ben looked at me and said, "I thought I had your cough, Daddy, it was so loud."
I guess the idea of colds being contagious will have to wait...
Then last Saturday, Ben was looking at his arms and started talking about he was growing up because he had little fuzzes on his arm.
"Then when I'm grown up, my arm will be really hairy, like Daddy's."
It's such a joy and such a responsibility to realize how much my boys look up to me. I just hope I can be as good a role model as my dad was.
