Feeling Glad
Here was one precious, funny moment with Davis as I was putting him to bed last night.
Mommy: "Davis, what is one thing that you are glad God has given you?"
Davis: "My head"
Mommy: "Why?"
Davis: "I don't know"
Mommy: "Well, I'm glad God gave me my head so that I can have eyes to see and a nose to smell and a mouth to taste things."
Davis (emphatically): "And a mouth to TALK, thats why I'm glad I have a head"
Mommy (laughing): "You sure love to talk don't you?"
Davis: "Yes!!!"
And he SO SO does. Sometimes too much for his own good, but he is following in his Mommy's footsteps. I was nicknamed motor mouth by my first grade teacher and my mom says that common words out of her mouth when I was a child were "if you'd only keep your mouth shut, Ellen, you wouldn't get in trouble!" Oh Davis, this talking will probably be a blessing sometimes and sometimes, not so much!

Oh I love this! I can hear his little voice chirping about how much he loves to talk! Precious.
Haha!! Isaac will prob. follow in his aunt's footsteps and be pushed around by the older sibling!! haha!!
...sorry, poor choice of words. What I meant was being spoken for by the older sibling!
Ha! This older sibling did some pushing around, yup. I think my bossyness towards you was the main cause of my getting in trouble, "if only you'd keep your mouth shut!" Guess I've come full circle as I'll get to witness it first hand. :)
Hoping God works things out so we can witness this phenomena first hand in February !!! Happy Birthday to Dan!! Del and Jean
