Feeding time.

We often take for granted the time we have to eat, and at our advancing ages we hardly even think about the effort that it takes to get food. Watching my Son try to drink his bottle has been so fascinating and painful. He has been able to drink from his bottle by himself for quite a few months now, but now that he prefers to sit up, it has been a little bit more of a challenge. He really has to raise that bottle up and throw his head back just to get the milk to come to the nipple. Of course I want to just have him lie down so he can drink it easier, but if I do that he'll just get up again and try to drink it the same way. Frustrating for both of us yes, but I think he's trying to tell me that he wants to do it his way. I can respect that. It will just take a little longer and take a little more muscle effort every time he wants to get a meal.
