Daddy and Kyle are alike?.......

A couple weeks ago Kyle discovered his Cafe Au La spots on his tummy. He came to mommy and wanted me to kiss his owie better. What a wonderful teaching opportunity Bennett and I were presented with. We told Kyle that he didn't have an owie but that those were his Cafe Au Lait (cafe-o-lay) spots and that daddy had them to. So Bennett showed Kyle his. Kyle's eyes lit up and you could see the connection as he said "daddy spots?", he then turned to me and asked "Mommy spot?" No we told Kyle not mommy only Daddy and Kyle. Daddy and Kyle match, they are the same. Again Kyle's eyes lit up as he exclaimed "daddy and Kyle Match!" and gave daddy a hug. He spent the next few minutes checking out daddy's spots. Having Daddy raise his shirt so he could see them. Then he kept shaking his head like he was sad for me "mommy, no spots. Daddy & Kyle match!" I was so thankful for the wonderful opportunity Heavenly Father gave us to begin introducing NF to Kyle. That is was a beautiful thing and made one little 2 yr old happy to "match" his daddy. I pray for many more positive experiences to teach Kyle about NF.
