Dear Bently,

We drive down main street pretty much every single day. Usually multiple times a day. We'll go to Arctic Circle that way or to the bank or any number of places. Every single time we are driving I hear your little voice pipe up "Mama, Doctors!" You exclaim it so proudly and with so much enthusiasm. We went to the doctor in that building for your Dad 1 time and you have never forgotten. You do the same thing with the Park we pass and the churches. (There are a lot of churches) Every time you are so proud of yourself for recognizing these places. You will not stop repeating it until I answer you. Your dad and I have gotten in the habit of stopping mid conversation and saying "yes Bently the doctors" and then picking up right where we left off. The other day I was thinking how it was getting a wee bit old. But then I realize one day you won't do that anymore. You won't think to mention the doctors or park or various churches and I'm going to miss it. So I'm going to work on appreciating the small things. Because they'll be gone one day. I love you so much Bently! I love your cute little voice and I love how much more you talk now! I can't get enough of my cute boy!
love,
Mom
