Co-Man. He's my beautiful little boy, although if I say that to him, he corrects me with, "Mom, boys aren't beautiful - they're handsome!" He's that too. Coen is my first born so he holds a special spot in my heart - don't get me wrong - I don't love him more than my other children, but he was my first... you parents with more than one child understand. He's the one that changed everything - the way I look at things and the way I do things, how I respond to things and how I interpret them. He's funny - and at the same time sort of lacks a sense of humor. He wavers from extremely serious to just plain silly. He's very smart too. He just amazes me. From the time he was a year old we've had to explain things to him in such real terms or he didn't understand. He just has to know everything about everything! He's very grown up about a lot of things and it's hard to wrap your head around it sometimes.
Coen is the most nurturing boy I've ever seen. He couldn't wait until Ravenna was born so he could take care of the baby. Unfortunately, that lasted about a year until Ven was oing to have nothing to do with it. He still tries so hard to take care of her, but she's just not having it. I think now that she's older she's let up on him, but Lily here now so he's let up on her too. It's a win-win for them both. I think he's going to be very tight with both girls as they grow up. Ven will be his trouble making buddy and Lily will be his baby forever.
He's so full of life - and energy. I don't think that child knows how to walk. He's always running, and jumping, and spinning, and kicking, and dancing! It's tiring just watching him, but it makes me laugh. Oh my gosh, and the talking!!! He can't physically stop!!! (You think I'm kidding, but he gets it from his father!)
He does slow down for snuggles with Mommy. Daddy has always been jealous of our snuggling time, but I don't care. I'll take all the snuggles I can get - who knows how long it will last! We were so blessed with Coen - with all three of our children. Each one is so different than the other. Just when we think we've got something figured out for the next child it turns out to be a completely different situation!
I love my children. I talk about them all the time & just thought I would give you all a little more insight into them. Now when I mention one of them, you'll have a little more to go on.
