Every night after that (and lots of daytime repeats too) I've been getting him to say"I love you." He's been saying "nigh nigh" at naps and bedtime for a short while now, but then tonight, after all the happy "nigh nighs," I layed him in bed and he said what sounded like a well enunciated, but somewhat off, "Hawaii." Huh? Then I realized he was saying I love you to me first! What a grin he gave me when I responded in kind!
It's been kind of a miserable couple of days, it's definitely feeling like babysitting without pay or damage control rather than parenting. Probably the one exception is how nicely and happily Emmett goes down for naps and bed, so that sweet moment was definitely a reminder to this Mom "oh, yeah, this is why I do it!"
