our bobo

How do you bottle up love?  You can't. 
Because love can't be contained, only felt, accepted, and given. 
To make love last, you don't contain it to save it or retain it
You have to just let it be wild spontaneous freely felt love
We are crazy for this boy
And I can't bottle up this arm and hand I never want to forget 
And won't in some ways...
but it won't be in the present
Oh it aches to be a parent at times and have this kind of love that can't be
Bottled up. 
Bobo sometimes does not wear underwear.  He knows of a certain boy that does not wear any.  When I questioned him, I said, "Are you _____(boys name)?"   He said, "My name is Barton and Barton does not wear underwear."  He has been known in the past to call himself Barton. 
His ax (tennis racket). 
 
His first "A"

The other day Bobo asked for "one of my boils"...he wanted a pan.
So Bobo was wearing this lanyard around his neck when we were standing at the baggage claim area waiting for Gigi's luggage.  He was leaning over the luggage as it was going around.  Well this lanyard got stuck in the metal and he was all of a sudden going past me, the lanyard was taking him around and down in a matter of a second.  I picked up his legs and a lady grabbed the lanyard and pulled it over his neck.  He could have been choked.  It was very scary.  We were very grateful for this other mother who thought quickly and saved our boy.  You can see the mark on his chin from the accident.  You live and learn.
We are grateful we only have a small scrape.

Bobo was sitting in my lap, a position we both love and he said, "You are always cozy!"
Bobo said to Drew..."Do you think we should just finish up here..."  They were watching animals play in a in a play area.  Bobo has some great sayings.  Bobo also will request things for me to wear and has taken to saying, we are getting married. 

Construction worker.  He likes attaching things to his belt and waist.  He wears his belt almost everyday and still loves his tie.

Playing the piano, he set up...with pencils
Bobo said "no" to something I asked him to.
I said, "right now" in a 'mama I mean it voice'
He responded, "I guess I can."
It was pretty funny.

There is that belt again...
Oh Yeah!
