Free Spirit

This afternoon I gave Adam a bath because when he's extra (what's the word?) ... exciteable? energetic? tantrum-y? ... it usually calms him down. Usually. He has been wanting to go to sleep an hour later than his normal bedtime and waking up around 5, 5:30 am. (We can no longer count on that 8:30 pm to 7 am Adam-sleep-time).

And since the less sleep Adam gets, the more unstoppable he becomes, he has been extra, extra . . . over-the-top.

To make it fun, in the bath I put some fingerpaints in his hands. I suggested that he could spread the paint on the walls, on himself, mix it with the water.

But Adam moves to the beat of a different drum. He closed his eyes...

And clapped.
