Hold me day.

Today was what I like to call a "hold me day".
Koen insisted that I hold him almost every minute.
So, I said to my baby,
"Okay Koen, today is your day!"
I hiked up my hip and floated through my house
with my little one perched on my left arm.

I decided to ignore
all the parenting books
that stress the importance of
not over-indulging your baby.

I put the housework on hold to hold my baby
and discovered in the process
that I can do just about anything that a 4 year old
could possibly request
with one available hand.
