Last night for the first time in years Elijah went to bed having forgotten Sweatshirt on the couch. We didn't realize it until we came out of the boys' bedroom and saw Sweatshirt in the living room. Our first thought was to take it in to Elijah, but then we decided to wait and see what would happen. Nothing did. We quickly forgot about it.
This morning Elijah came out of his bedroom looking thoughtful. He looked around the living room and his first question was, "Where's Sweatshirt?" I pointed to the couch. He picked it up and did his normal sleeve-to-nose gesture. Then he told me he was looking for it on his bed thinking it must have fallen down at night and couldn't find it.
Tonight he made sure Sweatshirt was back in his bed. I guess we are not quite ready to give it up.
