Where's Athen?

Normally when it's quiet a nervous feeling rushes through my body. Imagine my relief to find the quiet was caused by this:

Tucked away in a corner

:: According to Athen ::

Tim dropped the TV remote on the floor, following the thud we hear our little Athen exclaim; "Oh Fetch!"

We really need to watch what we say.

According to Athen

This boy cracks us up with the cute things he says.
A: Where is Daddy?
H: Dad is at work.
A: Why?
H: So he can earn money for our family.
A: So he can buy me toys?
H: Yes, so he can buy you toys.
A: Mommy, I don't need any more toys.

So "according to Athen" he has enough toys. Good to know.

The ER

Our family experienced our first run to the emergency room today after Athen and the foot of our ottoman had a meeting. His cut required 3 stitches. The doctor and nurses had their work cut out for them. It took wrapping Athen in a blanket having one nurse hold his head, one holding his legs, and dad holding his shoulders. Other nurses said they could hear him crying down the hallway. Through his screaming Athen cried,"Dad, you owe me!"

Even during serious moments he still makes us laugh.

Athen B.

Lately I've been taking family pictures for some friends. Athen has accompanied me and told me today that I needed to take his picture. So we got him dressed and did just that.
