Zach started life as a very curious boy. We could see it in his wide eyes before he was mobile. I got a big kick out of finding him in the dryer and the oven drawer.
My favorite toddler story about Zach occurred shortly after Savannah's birth. I was nursing her and felt pretty stuck doing so. I could hear dishes clanking in the kitchen and feared the mess I would find when Savannah finished. When I was finally able to check on Zachary, he proudly showed me that he had emptied the dishwasher and put the dishes away for me. I did not have the heart to tell him that the dishes were dirty, so I snuck them back into the dishwasher as soon as I could along with all the silverware that was made dirty by his super cute effort to help.
In less than a week, my cute helper will be eighteen. I blinked, folks, I simply blinked.
