My three-month-old baby is obsessed with three things: naps, milk and our bookcase. Whenever I rock him, he’ll stare over my shoulder at the shelves filled with graphic novels, magazines and art books. His eyes will get so wide, and his expression so focused, that it makes us laugh; and at bedtime, I even have to turn my chair away from the bookcase so he’ll be able to close those little eyes and fall asleep.So it made me smile when I saw this adorable video of a three-year-old boy who loves poetry! He memorizes gorgeous (and long!) poems and recites them to his mother. Here, he makes his way through “Litany” by Billy Collins. How incredibly sweet is that? Ahh, it makes my heart hurt. He’s going to be a serious heartbreaker on the playground scene.

I’m really not sure if I find this incredibly weird or one of the most adorable, precious, impressive things I’ve ever seen. hm.
(and no, I don’t follow mommyblogs, but I WILL follow anything by Joanna Goddard!)
