when asher was born, I never thought I would be able to connect with another kid like that. Having a second kiddo was so scary to me for that reason! But August is truly a miniature me in almost every way. I’m sure it has NOTHING to do with both of us being born in August 😉
He’s artistic, always creating, always wanting to help cook or bake or put together packaging. Emotionally deep (maybe a tad emotionally complicated). He loves to sing and dance. He’s shameless and shy at the same time.
When he started asking if he could help bake, my entire heart turned into a heart shaped fluffy stuffy and I could NOT say no. He is PATIENT and wants to learn and soak all of it in. He is motivated and wants to DO. He even takes constructive criticism well. That’s insane for a four year old.
I couldn’t be happier with how much we ended up connecting and having in common. I know once he hits 6, he’s naturally going to shift his admiration and focus to his dad. So I’m SOAKING in being his main focus right now. I am so happy our little chef has found so much to be passionate about.
