a favorite "Oliver-ism" of mine!

Oliver says the cutest things and I have to share my favorite so far! Last summer I had dinner over at Eric and Blair's and Oliver has never been a big eater, so sometimes he gets up and visits me by my chair while we are all still eating.  And he was holding onto my arm, when he noticed I had an owie on my arm. He looked up at me, with this really serious, concerned look that melted my heart, and says, "Yariyann, who did this to you??! Did a bad guy hurt you or did you get this at work?" So as if the cutest look on his face wasn't enough, he had to say that too!! That kid is such a caring little guy, so concerned and protective! Just another reason why I know his sisters, Ava and Everli, will be taken care of by their big "Brudder" (as Ava would say)!! I'm one proud auntie!
This is one of my favorite pics of Oliver when he was a bit younger, and probably most accurate to how I still look at him, even though he is such a big boy now!  ♥
