My Sensitive Boy...

I've thought that Tru was a pretty sensitive kid for a while now, but tonight I really saw how sensitive this little guys feelings are. Tru LOVES his daddy!! He is always just staring at him with huge eyes, mouth hanging wide open. He smiles so big when he sees his dad. Usually when Trent comes home from work he will come over to Tru and start talking with him, kiss him, play with him. This usually lasts for all of 10 minutes before Tru has to go to bed, but it's a fun little time for our family to play for a minute.

Well, tonight when Trent got home he wasn't feeling very well. I was feeding Tru some peaches and Trent walked in, gave me that look that says, "I feel like I'm going to die" and went to bed. Tru saw him for all of 5 seconds. So I went back to feeding Tru his peaches and he just kept pouting!! I thought that maybe he was done with the baby food and wanted to nurse. So I started to nurse him and he kept stopping, looking around the room, sticking out that little lip and whimpering. It was sad. It took me a minute to realize that he was sad that Trent didn't come over and say hi to him. So we went into the bedroom so that Tru could see Trent, and sure enough one smile from dad fixed his little heart. He started smiling and kicking again. Tru was okay after that and went back to his normal happy self.

Maybe it's just me, but I feel like Tru is super young to have such tender little feelings!! Most babies this little get sad when they are hungry, or tired, or are sick of laying on the floor and want someone to pick them up. But hurt feelings because dad went into the bedroom without saying hi??? Interesting.

I think that it's really cute how much Tru loves Trent. That at only 5 1/2 months this is a very obvious thing. That's pretty good, because Trent is a pretty easy and fun person to love!!
