My sweet boy, you are just growing way too quickly! You are an absolute JOY to be around! Your personality is growing and developing very quickly these days as you are showing Daddy and me your opinion about things and your likes and dislikes.
It is SO much fun to watch you learn new things and experience things that you have never seen. You are a very smart little boy (I am only a little biased though). You are working hard to learn your colors and shapes. Some of them are easier than others. You have mastered identifying red, blue, green, orange, purple, and white. You recognize black sometimes but still need some prompting for that one. Yellow is often mistaken for orange but hey...they are close. Brown is not really in your vocabulary unless you are talking about Brown Bear.
You are also able to identify the following shapes in a variety of environments (not just in books or on Umizoomi): circle, square, triangle, diamond, star, heart (and you always say boom boom after you identify a heart), and crescent (you sometimes call this a moon).
Daddy and I have recently started working with you on scripture memory and you are soaking it up! The verse that you are working on now (this is our first) is Psalm 34:4, "I prayed to The Lord and he answered me. He freed me from all my fears." This is the verse that the preschool department is studying at church so we decided that you could probably learn it. You enjoy doing this and often tell Mommy and Daddy "No" when we try to offer prompts. You enjoy listening to Bible stories and we always know when you want a story from the Bible as you will say "read Jesus." Of course this melts our hearts! Each night, we say prayers as a family before we lay you down for bed. You say your own prayer and it is ABSOLUTELY precious! It always sounds like this, " Jesus, Thank you. I love you. Amen." *sigh*
Your little imagination is just running wild right now and that too is fun to watch! You sit with your toy cars or trains and roll them and talk, talk, talk! I am SO happy to see you developing this playful side of your personality.
These are a few more of your favorites:
TV Shows/Movies: Umizoomi, Paw Patrol, and Little Einsteins
Toys: Paw Patrol Cars, trains, Little People Barn
Foods: chicken nuggets (fried only...any other kind is NOT chicken), meatballs, French fries (pinch pies), PopTarts (Wildberry or Blueberry or as you say "puple none" or "white none"), toast, rice, quesadillas ("dilla"), and sometimes ice cream. It is quite comical to watch you eat ice cream from a spoon. You think that it should be licked whether from a spoon or cone. If we give you an ice cream cone you only want to eat the cone.
You, my sweet love, are FULL of life and Daddy and I thank God for you each and every day! It makes me proud to watch you grow and learn to love and care for others! You are such a blessing and will never know how much Mommy and Daddy love you!
