A Minor Oversight of a Very Important Day

Both Lauren and I negleted to notice, realize, pay attention to, whatever, that Liam gave us his first smile on the one-month anniversary of his surgery. We take this as a sign that things are normal once again at home; or as normal as they can be with an infant and a toddler in the home. The craziness of an active and highly intelligent toddler running around, and a baby boy who needs to be fed every three hours and demands to be held (while having his butt patted), while juggling all the usual work around the house that needs to get done, and running errands while not able to take Liam fully out in public yet, is distracting.

I guess if you told me one month ago that we would forget the one-month anniversary of his surgery I would have looked at you like you had three heads. In a twisted way, we're happy to have overlooked the date...even if Liam didn't.
