A good morning to me. It's always a good morning waking to the sound of my son hollering Mooommmmyy! Hmm, what is it this time? Maybe he woke with a migraine? Maybe he fell off the bed? Nope, he had a morning "accident". As I stumble through the house I realize my oldest daughter is already in his room and is helping him get undressed, and talking really sweetly with him. Hmm. Maybe I'm actually dreaming. That's not normal for sure. But nope, not dreaming, gotta get the bath started and the bed changed.
Jayce, to say the least, is quite a character at the tender age of 5. I got the priviledge of attending meet the teacher night for his class last night. I received a paper of one of his drawings. Of all things it has to be of tarantulas. Great. I am HIGHLY afraid of spiders. The one on the back was titled "baby tarantula" and the one on the front was titled "big daddy". Nice.
I saw he had perfect 10's for his behavior on the chart on the wall. Hmm..wonder how long it will take for that to change and for me to have to go to a school conference. Jayce's personality is very black and white, he's either just the sweetest thing, or I really just don't want to claim him at all. His sweet side: always telling mommy and his sisters how pretty they look, holding doors open, cracking us up with his many phrases and faces, asking what he can help clean, etc. His we don't really want to know you side: telling strangers some not so nice things about themselves (even though it may have been factual) and making mom want to crawl under the nearest anything, throwing screaming fits in public or anywhere for that matter, pulling out his youngest sisters hair and using her as a punching bag while she just laid there defenselessly, though this I believe has thankfully come to an end.
Here is just a small taste of the many faces of my little boy:
My little ethiopian
"I drink too much"
Wild eyed cowboy
It's too cold for this Ranger ride
I'd like to give a quick thanks to the girls that have popped on over and left me comments. I surely would've responded back to you by now, but I am still in the learning process here and haven't actually had the time to sit down to learn about it all yet.
What a cutie! And how sweet of your oldest daughter to help him out!
