Still in Love!

    After almost 4 years I am still in love with my boys!  Robert Graham and I have begun a lot of different activities.  One, is we ride our bikes in the parking lot at our church, yes, I said, "we" because I realized after getting him a bike that I would not be able to keep up with him without my own!  Second, we do a LOT of kicking soccer balls and other bouncy balls.  His favorite game right now is "knock over the cones" which consists of four soccer cones and a ball.  He kicks the ball as hard as he can to knock the cones over and I must say is very talented at this self-made game!  Third, he loves his "baby fish" Nemo, who just happens to be a stuffed animal his Grammy bought him at the Atlanta Aquarium last year.  He calls him "my little boy" and tells all sorts of stories about Nemo.  Anything RG wants, Nemo already has 10 of them!  And he mentions to us frequently that, "Sometimes Nemo walks on only one fin", and "Nemo is a flying fish", and "Nemo can....ride a bike, swim faster than anyone else, wear a watch, drink milk, etc. etc." This Nemo is getting more and more daring and crazy each day.











     I love the fact that RG still loves Veggietales.  He loves his puppy Piper and he is SUCH a Daddy's boy.  I love that he is creative, fun, and sweet (most of the time).  He is learning verses that correspond with each letter of the alphabet, actually has memorized them all!  He is learning catechism (Baptist), and the 10 Commandments.  He is VERY smart.  He is such a memorizer that sometimes it gets him into trouble! He never forgets anything we say though so we must be very careful and gentle at times.  He has a soft heart and seems to be developing a gentle spirit.
