Josh loved it, but doesn't like how the picture of him turned out so I won't post it.
So, we get up, I mix up the batter and Mikey makes the fantastically fun designs. I got a flower this time. Kaya hates real maple syrup but I can't bring myself to buy the Aunt Jemima High Fructose Corn Syrup version so I made my mom's version and Kaya was happy! I like when we can reach great compromises.
Then we all went for a hike in the woods and this was my favorite moment because Josh finally let us get a picture taken together:

Baby steps. Maybe someday he'll just smile. Then again, he does take after his dad in so many ways... it's actually kind of scary. That's how I know they are really related. Those kids are carbon copies of their papa. It's a good thing I like him so much!
