Fin's Favorites


As I sit here watching Elmo's World: Babies, Dogs & More, I can't help but think how much easier it would be to just have little Fin back. I'm really excited to meet our new baby, but boy am I worried about my sleep...

Anybody who knew Fin will get a smile and maybe a few tears out of remembering a few of his favorite things.

Tennis ball on a rope, peanut butter, sleeping, a fluffy bed, the couch, laying in the sunshine, sitting in the breezeway watching for A’s car or sitting on the deck in CT, playing with his daddy, tossing and fetching his ball (3 passes, max), going for long car rides, sitting/laying on the patio lounge chairs in the spring/summer, putting his face in the snow, dunking his head in a big bowl of water, laying under the dining table waiting for scraps, being scratched under his collar, belly rubs, the hair dryer, treats, his bone filled with peanut butter or the kong (when he was younger), his family – including his sister C, laying behind the gate in Grandma and Grandpa’s living room, his home in Connecticut, going in the woods in CT, sleeping under grandpa’s desk, eating grandma’s sauce and parmesan cheese on his food, noni’s food scraps on holidays, laying belly down on cold tile floors, sniffing and licking little kids (especially baby feet and hands), laying under our desk, crawling under the futon, licking dishes with people food clean, cheese, his family…

Is it weird that those are some of my favorite things too?
