Growing Up Happy: The Joyful Adventures of Knox
A Peek into the Life of a One-Year-Old Full of Laughter, Music, and Love
Hi there! Remember me? I was featured in the February publication when I was just barely a few months old. My name is Knox, but you can call me Knoxonaut. I’m one year old, and let me tell you, life is a delightful adventure! I have some furry siblings at home—my dog, Pac, and my cat, Rawri. They’re pretty fun to play with!
One of the cutest things I do? Well, whenever I hear music, I can't help but raise my hand and dance! It’s like my own little dance party. And when I laugh, I scrunch my nose up, which makes everyone around me giggle. I love to climb on everything I can see—couches, chairs, you name it! Sometimes, I even try to mimic my mom, especially when she snaps her fingers. Oh, and I’ve been known to give our dog a good nudge with my walker. We’re just having a little fun!
Music is a big part of my life, and I’ve got a unique taste for a little one. My favorite song is “All My Life” by Lil Durk and J. Cole. I know, it’s not your typical lullaby! But I also enjoy “When You Say Nothing At All” by Alison Krauss. It’s nice to listen to while I wind down.
If I had to describe myself in one word, it would be "cheerful." I love to smile and make everyone around me happy! I’m also known as the little astronaut—Knoxonaut—because I’m always exploring new things.
You know, I’m lucky to have a wonderful mom. She’s a single mom running her own business, and she says I make her life so much better. I sleep for over 10 hours at night, which keeps her happy too!
If I could talk, I’d probably say a lot! I’d ask, “What’s that?” and “Can we go there?” I love to be fed, held, and played with. And let me have some alone time with my dog and cat, please! Oh, and don’t forget to cuddle me—I love you!
So, that’s a little glimpse into my world as a one-year-old. Life is full of laughter, music, and love, and I can’t wait to see what adventures come next!
