Books in reverse

In my head, when Owen does this, it makes kind of a "beep beep" sound of a truck backing up slowly. I had always hoped that Owen would do this, ever since my nephew Charlie did it a couple of years ago and completely melted my heart. Owen now will bring a book to me/Keith, turn around with his back to us, and walk a few steps backwards and plant himself in our lap. He is parallel parking into our lap, backing up into a soft comfortable reading chair - a chair that reads TO you, no less, and leans back against our respective chest. I swear, this never gets old, it is perhaps the most adorable thing occurring on this planet, and that includes the really cute baby panda at the SD Zoo, folks.
