….the boys will play!  Micah filled in as Mr. Mom like a champ while I was at the hospital.  He took Scout on walks to explore, they visited parks and threw a zillion rocks, cooked together, Micah taught Scout the “Barnyard Dance” from a book of the same name where they skitter with the mice and bow to their partners, Micah wrestled with Scout and was the victim of Scout’s lethal “atomic leg drop” dozens of times, Micah made sure Scout had his favorite meal of “rice soup” (miso with rice in it) almost daily, etc.  I was so glad to know that Scout was not missing out even though I was MIA.  But my favorites were when they would stop by the hospital and peek in the window because Scout wasn’t allowed in……and when I caught Scout “chilaxing” next to his obviously exhausted dad with PJ’s on that gave me tears in my eyes.  I love that little boy…..and the dad who takes such good care of him.
