Luke

Luke you are 4 years and 10 months old.  God bless your heart, you still only weigh 36 pounds.  You are eating alot better and love to drink milk again.  You are going to preschool now and learning so much.  You still hate taking naps and are looking forward to Kindergarten so you no longer have to sleep at school.  Here are some of the cute things you are doing right now:

• You love www.abcmouse.com and are making a lot of progress in learning but most impressive is the fact that you can do the same activity for 45 minutes straight
• You still love books and get so excited about getting new ones
• You can count to 30 but when you get to 20 you start saying "number 1, number 2, etc instead of 21, 22, etc) 
• You say your ABC's very well now
• You can write your name so good and I am so proud of you
• You ride your bike more now and are doing really well
• You really want to learn how to rope and you enjoy practicing
• You still love to do "work" outside and even wanted to wear your work clothes to school today
• You love to pray at dinner and do such a good job.  You always pray for everyone to be safe and never forget to pray for anyone that you hear is sick.
• You really like to aggravate your brother and enjoy trying to get him in trouble
• You have started a little habit of making stories up.  We have been trying to explain to you that you can't lie.  I realize this is partially our fault because we have always told you stories at night and made up crazy things.
• You love to help me in the kitchen and always want your chore to be cooking.  Last night, you washed dishes for me and really did a good job.
• You want to be a Cowboy for Halloween and pretty much every other day
• You have really started to like taking showers (except for the part when the water gets in your face, LOL)
• You are amazing at inventive reading.  You will take a book and based on what we have read in the past and the pictures, you read. 
• While at the hog's game the other day, you kept wanting to cheer for the other team.  I told you they were the enemy and you wanted to know why.  It was so funny!
• You know all your colors but still have trouble telling the difference between brown and black.
• We have tried to remove a lot of sugar from your diet because it makes you very "excited."  You are taking it really well.
• I am starting to think you are going to be a weatherman because each morning you want to discuss the clouds and whether or not it will rain.  Yesterday it was still dark when we left the house and you explained to me that it was very cloudy and it would probably rain.  You were correct!
• You went to the fall festival at Bruno-Pyatt and wanted Ethan to take you through the haunted hallway.  You came out telling me how it wasnt scary at all, then on the way home you told me the truth. 
• You still hate mornings and dont want to get dressed.  You ask the same thing each morning, "is it a school day, stay at home day or church day?" 
• You love going to Church and always want to eat with your buddy Landon every week.  Its like you guys go into Sunday school class and devise a plan to convince us to take you to eat.
