Just sharing how awesome this kid is!

From the tiniest flickers of movement as a baby to now intentional control as an almost 4-year-old! Harrison is always pushing boundaries, exploring new ways to do things, and is truly the most determined kiddo.

Had full intentions on getting a few things done on my laptop this evening.
SOMEONE had other plans however…

At one point he was watching Ms Rachel on the laptop and Mickey on TV. Something straight out of the @iamwesbrown.bsky.social playbook.
