Miles: “Knock Knock”
Me: “Who’s there?”
Miles: “Banana”
Me: “Banana Who”
Miles: “Aren’t you glad I didn’t say Orange?”
At this point I’m thinking, at least he got the right fruit in there but Miles scrunches up his forehead as I fake laugh and says “Daddy what’s the real joke?” So I decided to humor him again. [click to continue…]

This is Miles. Click for better resolution
This is Miles. I feel like I’ve just begun to know him. Recently he’s been relating his observations to us with his own clever interpretations. I find myself constantly amused, inspired, and uplifted as I watch this little boy interact with the world. He’s developing a piercing wit that he casually melds with his uncomplicated but somehow sophisticated (for a 2 year old) understanding of how people and things work.
Recently he was talking to us about death. He stated without aparent concern that each of us (Ruby, Mama, Aunt Kate, Jake, Michael, and Daddy) will die some day. Then he continued with, “when I die, I want to be next to a volcano.” We all looked at each other, stunned, and nodded.
I have so much to learn from and about these two!
