days like today

It's days like today when I think I really can't keep saying, "he's such a happy boy." He has a day like today about once every week or two, when he's basically deeply sorrowful and 80% inconsolable 80% of the night and day. We're supposed to know what's wrong and we have no clue. With exactly the right combination of singing and holding and rocking and nuzzling he just might reach homeostasis for a short while, but anything can throw it. Anything.

Lars' new friend Meredith

Big news at the Kynvi house is that by some miraculous act of grace, Meredith walked into our lives yesterday and accepted the position of Lars' main Thursday connection. If I had to sit down and design the perfect person to hang out with Lars (aside from moms, of course), I couldn't have done better than Meredith. He turned on the charm and won her heart in mere minutes, and we couldn't be happier.

Lars in his Little Room




The Little Room is a fantastic learning environment designed by Danish psychologist and vision educator Lilli Nielsen. It's amazing & Lars loves it! His was purchased for him by Grandma, Mormor, and his Godparents Lisa & John. It's the only place he can really play independently.

loves the water!
