MLK Day

Living on the outskirts of Atlanta means that Martin Luther King Jr. Day is a BIG DEAL where I live. One of these days I'm going to venture into the city to experience one of the many celebrations that occur, but today I spent it with my family enjoying the day off.
Tonight I realized that Ethan is becoming more and more human. I know that sounds weird, but when they're infants it takes awhile for their quirks to come through. Tonight at "Eat at Joe's", a local grill in Grayson,Ga, Ethan discovered that he absolutely.loves.pickles. I don't mean he tasted one with the tip of his tongue and smiled, I mean the boy devoured the soft bits until there was nothing left but the rhine! We only had a minor almost choking mishap, but thanks to a strong gag reflex he overcame. Unfit mothering aside, I love the fact that Ethan loves pickles like his mama has developed his own tastes. As much as I've enjoyed the past eight months, I can tell it's only going to get better.
