Summer 2011: Day 25
When the heat index is 106 and you have found a tiny spot to watch the baseball game in the shade, of course you would also want to snuggle right into your mom’s lap. Really, who could say no?

Dear KP,
You are it. You are the little one, the little brother, the littlest Sellke, the one who watches everyone go first. And you my friend, are so much older and wiser for it.
You get to navigate the waters differently. You see things I would have never let your older brother see at your age. You do things I would have never let your siblings do at your age. You have a lot of room to roam and you take every last space and fill it up.
You are the one that makes us laugh so hard tears roll down our cheeks. You are the one that finds wonder in everything. You are the one that can hug so lovingly that you walk away from the experience instantly changed.
Everything you take on, you take it on with great abandon. From eating to playing to school you dive in hard and fast and don’t let go.
You are an amazing kid to watch and an utter joy to have around.
May this next year fill you up in all ways possible.
I love you and am so lucky to be your mom.
Ohhh and remember, when you are playing with the hand saw while we aren’t watching, just be really careful!
xoxox
Mom

As we walked through Pet Smart today, picking up dog food and chew toys so Murphy will stop eating the stairs, KP asked to hang out and check out all the fish while I picked up all our goods.
He was still there, scanning all the fish in all the fish tanks when I came back. After a little more time he called us all over and said, “See that one up there? He’s missing an eye. I want that one!”

KP handed me this rolled up wad of paper to bring home from the bus stop this morning.
When the bus rolled away, I opened it up and found this.
KP’s six year old self portrait.
I love the fact he added in a devil like creature on his shirt and he gave himself blue eyes. He is the only one of the three who has brown.
