Happy Birthday Luke


Today is my baby's 4th birthday. It's hard to imagine how our life was without him. He has brought so much joy to our life. He is a loving son and a great big brother. Kai is constantly striving to do and be just like him. He is really good at sharing (or basically giving things up completely - like a drink) to his little brother. His biggest excitement about turning 4 is being able to ride the school bus (shuttle) at church. His dear friend Matthew was able to do this 2 months ago. It has been so hard to be patient. This past Sunday he was able to ride the shuttle with not only Matthew, but his other friend Luke as well! He also decided that he did not need to bring his blanket with him. After all, he is 4 and is a big boy now!

He currently is very interested in basketball and has begun to request to watch non-animated children movies. He loves the Chipmunks movie. He says he wants to take a trip to Las Vegas and the River this year! We just switched his bedroom with Kai's this past weekend. He is handling it very well. I needed to get some of those toys out of my living room and it is easier with the baby's crib rather than Luke's queen size bed! He definitely has a mind of his own and is independent. He is still very particular about his clothing. He doesn't like seems in his socks or tags on his clothes. He hates it when his pants are too long (which is often when he initially switches sizes.) He prefers not to wear any jacket or sweatshirts. I think he would live in shorts and short sleeve t-shirts if I would let him. I think that he has Bill's disposition (generally happy, but sometimes moody) and my temper. Quick to anger and lash out, but also quick to forgive and forget. He is a door slammer just like me. This upsets Bill very much. He hates that. It makes my dad laugh on the other hand! He still doesn't like preschool! He reminds me of this every Tuesday and Thursday! Little does he understand how much more schooling he has in life. :0)


WE LOVE YOU LUKIE!!!
