Little Gospel Scholar

Tonight as Mom tucked you and Alyssa into bed she asked "Do you think that God designed ecosystems for our earth?"  and you replied "No, Jesus.  Jesus actually."  You are so cute and so smart and so good.  Even at the ripe old age of two you know that Jesus created the earth.  I love you.

Some things I like about you

:: You love to operate the microwave. Whether we are cooking Joel's food or reheating leftovers, you stand at the microwave ready to push buttons. Sometimes you count down waiting for the food to be done. "Ten, eighty two, seven."

:: You push the food to the roof of your mouth with your tongue while you eat. You have been doing this for a long time - 6 months or more. It has resulted in incredible tongue muscles. You can do the wave with your tongue. The sides go up, the center down. The center goes up, the sides go down.

:: You are starting to run and climb more. I love your little widdle, waddle run!

:: You passed through your really challenging obstinate crazy phase I mentioned last time fairly quickly. I do have to be a bit more patient and let you work independently sometimes, but we've reached a happy medium.

:: You've taken to saying cheese when I take pictures and give a funny, goofy teethy grin!
