Micah has the most gorgeous crop of golden locks! The more humid the air, the tighter they curl. They are springy and bounce back beautifully when twanged.
Pretty boywith your curls of gold
makes it almost impossibleto scold
when you try to climbyour great grandpa’s chair
because it’s such a lovely view of you up there!
Jackson is full of bear hugs for his baby brother – never one to skimp on affection, he is generous with his enthusiasm,
and especially his rib cracking
brother bear
HUGS!
and especially his rib crackingbrother bearHUGS!And he has the heart of a bear, showing us his courage this week as he adjusts to preschool. Frightened of the loud bell that rings between periods we have been praying for him morning, noon and night about it. And as he snuggled in bed next to me last night I asked him if he wanted to pray for things he was thankful for. Jackson prayed:
“Dear Jesus:
Thank-you for my tractor.
Thank-you that it is green.
Thank-you that I am healthy and BRAVE”
And this morning he absolutely was! He bravely marched into his preschool and bravely put on his tool belt and bravely broached the box of tractors and then bravely waved me good-bye!
My baby bear sure is growing up.

Aww, that is precious!!
You boys are too beautiful! And i think if I had a green tractor I might be braver too…
I love those curls. Please keep us posted on how preschool is going.
My brother John had curls like that and I remember my Mom crying the first time they were cut off at the big boy barber shop.
That Elmo sleeper is the best – SO huggable!!
Hurray for boy curls – so beautiful! the only downside can be being called she, or my fav, “young lady.” :-0 (Scout gets that sometimes)
