10 Great Things About J

Celebrating his 4th Birthday --

(10) Misses mommy when she's gone all day! And usually greets her with a loving Did you bring me a present?

(9) I can dress myself! And only occassionally gets in trouble if the arms of the one-piece footed pjs happen to be turned inside out.

(8) Loves puzzles! Unfortunately, buying early for Christmas backfired -- he has outgrown the 24-piece puzzles and is on to 60!

(7) Keeps everything in order (mimicking the peculiar tidy habits of his father)!

(6) Eats healthy! Choosing nutella instead of jam and carrots over poptarts. Well, at least when daddy's around. But always supports donuts for breakfast when mommy's home for the day!

(5) Begins every prayer with Please bless I'll be nice to Jeremy.

(4) Great counter! They must count everything at preschool . . . As we're clicking our seatbelts one-two-three-four-five . . . dishing up dinner one-two-three-four . . . walking to the mailbox one-two-three . . . (our little rainman).

(3) LOVES cars . . . especially Pixar cars.

(2) Mr. Manners . . . including a polite No thank you when asked to carry the diaper to the garbage.

(1) Incredibly supportive big brother! He is especially helpful interpreting Jeremy's fussing . . . Jeremy's hungry . . . Jeremy's poopy . . . Jeremy wants that toy. And when Jeremy is crying with a broken heart because mommy tapped his hands for touching a no-no, J offers Jeremy's sorry!
