As a family we have watched the below video more than a dozen times. Daxon loves it and laughs along with Tacen for being so silly in the mud.
The other morning (12.13.13) Daxon was playing in my bathtub while I was getting ready for the day. He started laughing and it got my attention. I looked over and knew instantly what he was doing and that he was impersonating the above video of Tacen.
It's these precious little moments that I love! Seeing Daxon follow after his big brother in simple, but small ways helps me to know that Tacen is influencing his brother from afar. They'll always be brothers even if they don't get to be together right now and for that I'm eternally grateful. I'm so thankful that we have a beautiful guardian angel in our sweet Tacen watching over Daxon and all of us. And I'm so glad that Tacen's silly ways can show up in the most unexpected of times just like his little brother impersonating a video he had seen before. Love my boys! I love that heaven is so much closer than I often realize and I'm so lucky that I have these little reminders every so often!
I haven't seen that video of Tacen! Obviously, I haven't seen any, really, of the last 9 months of his life. Loved it. SO cute. And it makes the Daxon bathtub stuff ten times cuter.
You are such a good example to me of enjoying the moment. I'm afraid that if my little girl was out playing in the mud, my first instinct would have been to have her come inside and clean up. But that video and that memory are priceless, and I'm sure you are so glad that you have them! It definitely makes me realize the need to take a step back and enjoy the craziness of motherhood. So thank you!!
