I Love Lucy

I always know when James needs a nap or when he needs some downtime

.

1. He wants to snuggle

2. He wants to watch an episode of I Love Lucy

It's like his ultimate combo for calming down and relaxing.

James LOVES I Love Lucy.

It seriously cracks me up. 

He gets all the jokes and can recite his favorite episodes.

Yesterday we were watching an episode where Lucy and Ethel confront Ricky and Fred about an amazing invention that would keep their hands from being soggy (a dishwasher) and Ricky replied that he knew what they wanted: rubber gloves!

It just so happens that at the exact moment, Paul was doing the dishes. James whispered in my ear that he wanted to make a surprise for his daddy: dish gloves! It just so happened that I had a brand new package under the sink so James found a ribbon and put his little gift together. 

As soon as Paul came home today James rushed downstairs with his present. . I don't think Paul knew what to think until I explained that it came from I Love Lucy.

We love our funny, thoughtful little boy.
