Out of the Lobby

Timothy appears like a whirlwind of energy, sweeping Mitchell from the lobby - a place of grown-up papers and boring adult things - into a world of pure toddler magic. The playpen awaits, a landscape of tiny humans and endless possibilities.

But first, a Timothy special. A thunderous fart right in Mitchell’s face - the universal language of brotherly love in the world of toddlers. Mitchell, ever the trooper, takes it with the grace of a tiny warrior.

A gentle push. A warm bottle of milk. The playroom becomes Mitchell’s kingdom. Surrounded by other little explorers, he settles in, milk in hand, ready for whatever adventure comes next.

The other boys swirl around him - a tornado of energy, of possibility. Mitchell? He’s the calm in the center of the storm, his bottle a beacon of comfort, his spirit unbreakable.

Lessons learned:

• Love comes in strange packages

• Comfort is wherever you make it

• Every moment is an adventure

Stay curious. Stay playful. Stay Mitchell.

P.S. To all the little adventurers out there - your world is beautiful, messy, and absolutely perfect.
