It's wildflower time again in central Texas, and I was not surprised to confirm that getting a dashing toddler and flowers into the same photograph was a bit trickier (and more fun) than taking last year's pictures.
Also, I've lately come to the (probably pretty obvious) conclusion that one of the reasons transitioning from nurturing a helpless baby to raising a happy, well-mannered toddler is so difficult is this: babyhood is all about trying to figure out and provide exactly what the baby wants. Toddlerhood is all about helping this growing human being learn that he can't always have exactly what he wants. This sure makes a mama re-arrange her mind, and get ready for some gotta-just-get-through-them upsets!
