Hugs

Sawyer gives the best most energetic hugs. He is always trying to kiss people on the lips. He got in trouble for it one day at school.

Kinder tots

I asked soy if there was anything he didn't like about school. He said "I like everything about school mom". We had a little prayer together on the car on his first day

Taking Care of Mom

Sawyer has a new thing he has been doing lately and it is taking care of me. He brings me drinks and asks if I need anything. Not all of the time but when he is feeling extra sweet. He mostly does it when I come home from work in the mornings. He will bring me a drink of water after I get into bed. (Joel always brings him a drink of water after he gets in bed) and then he says, "I'm taking care of you Mom". I think I have found my power of attorney or caregiver when I need one.

Blunt

We were getting ready for the Trunk or Treat at our church tonight and after I put on my Elasti-Girl costume (the Mom from the Incredibles) Sawyer said, "Mom, you look pretty!" Then Joel put his Mr. Incredible costume on and stuffed it with a beer belly and Sawyer said, "Mom, you look pretty, but Dad, your just fat."

Primary Program

Sawyer it turns out is a genius at memorizing. Joel was teaching him his part for the primary program and he said it by himself after the third time. It's three sentences long! His primary teachers were very impressed and Sawyer's face was priceless. He loves praise. We have to remember that.

And we also found out the Soy has some moves--we got a dance game last week and he was showing us all up!

Favorite Sawyer Moment of the Day

Sawyer loves to set up his guys (his superheroes and pirates) in preparation for battle. He calls it his set up and after he gets done he says "Mom! Come look at my set up. Do you like my set up? I am a good setter."

He painted boxes for almost an hour today (and my bench). It's so nice when I can get him involved that long in an activity on his own that isn't electronic!
