Panera in our pjs |
You are so loved, and a bright spot in our lives. Your smile and laughter are contagious, and oh how you make us laugh out loud!
You know what you want, but you also like to want all of the things that your big sister wants. When we ask you what you want to eat for lunch, you'll sometimes ask Noelle what she wants before you tell us the same thing she told you. But you also love to ask for turkey sandwiches and cheese pizza for breakfast (which Noelle would not do!)
You're a proud big brother, and will often run over to Clara and give her a toy or make silly faces at her to help her when she's upset. You've prayed quite a few times that God would "help her not have the pains" when she's had tummy problems. You are the perfect brother for Noelle and Clara!
Your absolute favorite is still Paw Patrol. We wear it all- shirts, pajamas, underwear, socks, and shoes. Whenever we walk by the Paw Patrol aisle at Target, you want to "just look", and your ever growing collection is scattered about the house. You've also been in to matchbox cars lately and want to have a racetrack. And your little cars are all over!

Mommy needs to get you new clothes because most all of your pants are high-waters, and it's sometimes a real struggle to get your shirts pulled over your head. You're starting to learn how to dress and undress yourself, and you easily put on your own shoes now, though often on the wrong feet. But they're the cool light-up kind and you love to light the way for us when we go in to the dark garage.
Your favorite foods are cheese pizza, grilled cheese, cheese and turkey sandwiches, yogurt (clearly we're going strong with the dairy), and ALL things dessert. You're like mama- every meal should be followed by dessert, which is why you ask for candy or a popsicle as a part of your breakfast. At least we get donuts fairly regularly. :) You ask for Chick Fil A on the regular, though now that the closest one is 25 minutes away, we don't go nearly as often as we used to. But we're regulars at Target, and you love your "smoothies", aka Icees. And your soda water, you are all about that.
I love watching you jump right in to playing with other kids. When you see our neighbors outside playing, you want to run right out to join them. Playing with sticks, climbing on the rocks, running around- you're all about it. It's fun being at a church that has a lot of little boys right around your age who have taught you the joys of sword fighting and more about super heroes.
We've been told multiple times that you are eager to pray and ready to answer questions in Sunday school. I love all the times that you ask "did God make..." referring to cars, buildings, people, everything! I hope your childlike questions and faith continue with you into adulthood. And that you choose in your heart to follow after the God who loves you enough to send His Son to die for you.
You. Are. So. Loved! We are proud of you, and pray that God blesses your life abundantly!
love
mommy
