Like a New Dad

 

I came home from my cello lesson to two boys on the street corner, very excitedly shouting and gesturing something. “Baby praying mantises. We found baby praying mantises!”
And ever since I have listened to Zach, sounding like a new father, “Look at him. He’s so smart. Whenever I hold something above his head he reaches up to it. Look how he turns his head to look at me.” Or, “When Skype rang he must have heard it because he turned his head in that direction.”
Very cute.
