Half Way to 7!

Today Benjamin is 3 1/2!

He still...
  • loves dogs (hence his gift ~ a puzzle I found today at a garage sale for 50 cents)
  • asks to read stories together
  • stays dry all night long
  • finds outdoor playtime great fun
  • hates anything flying around his head (even if it is a gnat, it's called a bee!!!)
  • loves to wear his sunglasses
  • loves meeting & will request to play mtg with me
  • thinks Nana & Papa's house is the best place to be
  • has a smile that melts my heart

In the past 6 months, he...

  • has a new fascination with Donald Duck
  • loves his violin group lessons
  • acts out the stories we read - with his trains or little character toys (having full conversations between characters)
  • wants to go to Austin Texas to see Daddy
  • whispers to me that he wants to have his turn to pray or speak in meeting
  • has reminded us that he remembers many little details from the past (ie Daddy killed a spider in our trailer at convention time - that was back in October)
  • has reminded us that he would like a Baby Morgan (if you haven't met her, she is a pretty special little girl - his youngest 1st cousin on Russell's side of the family)
  • is having difficulty falling asleep at night
  • gives us many reasons to laugh & be thankful
