Great Joy

Gabriel, Gabriel, Gabriel. Sometimes I shake my head in wonderment at him and his funny antics! Two weeks ago he up and decided it was high-time to crawl, so in 2 days he mastered it,
now, I spend his waking hours cruising after him every few minutes to steer him away from...the book shelf, the DVD's, daddy's cables, the laptop, tearing up his puzzle mat...and the list continues!
So, since he's decided that crawling is old news, his newest is climbing. Yup, he climbed up Trophimus (who was sitting on the floor with him) onto the chair the other day...today he climbed in the coffee table, he keeps trying to pull himself up on the couches, but they are too high.
He LOVES climbing on the armrest of the chairs too, since they are side-by-side!
He brings us such great joy!
Tonight, we were out for a small intimate dinner to celebrate Trophi's brother's wedding
(his wife died 3 years ago and he has 4 young daughters). Gabriel was so full of energy,
and everyone was amazed how he just kept jumping and jumping and jumping on my lap,
and Trophi's lap! Nope, he simply doesn't run out of energy.
He surely fills each day with great joy!
