him and him

i love him and him. i love that they're alike in so many ways. i love that chase has inherited his dad's love of basketball. he often runs and grabs his b-ball when he hears the garage opening, indicating his daddy's arrival. i love that it's already becoming 'their thing.' it's the only thing we really let chase watch on tv and only because i love seeing the both of them get excited watching games together. i love imagining them continuing to bond over basketball as chase gets older.

i love that chase has inherited paul's social precociousness and his sense of humor. these are 2 things i love about paul so i feel lucky to now also have a munchkin that seems to have adopted these traits himself. paul is such a social and likable guy. it seems like he's remained friends with everyone he's ever been in contact with and i love that. he has this knack for finding common ground with everyone he meets. i love his sense of humor. he's often the entertainer of the group, always making everyone crack up with his wit. it's definitely always fun when he's around. i love that.

i'm glad that chase seems to be taking after his daddy in these respects. he loves being around social gatherings. he often stops what he's doing to join a group engaged in laughter. he'll start laughing himself, even when he doesn't know what he's laughing about. he just wants to be included in the fun. i love that.

i love my knuckleheads. they keep me entertained. :)
