Happy Lunch

Dear Sawyer,

Recent activity:

- You count like this: 1 2 3 4 5 6 11 14 19 12 19 12 19 12

- You have a bossy side. Sometimes, you say things like, "Sit up, Mama. 'Sit up,' I said!" Whoa, there.

- We started a new music class and the other boys in the class can get a little rowdy. They like to run around the classroom, touch toys in the corner that they're not supposed to touch, bang the drumsticks on the mirror and not listen when their moms and nannies tell them to sit down. But not you! You don't copy their behavior at all. Instead, you obediently sit in my lap for the entire class and follow all of the teacher's instructions. Thank you for being such a good boy!

- You like to put emphasis on the things you say by shaking your hands up and down with your palms turned upward. It's so cute!

- You call armpit hair "grass."

- When you want to sit on my lap, you say, "Lap lap, please!"

- You are so helpful! Whenever you see me Swiffering the floor, making my bed, folding laundry or cooking dinner, you say, "I want to help you!" If I'm cooking something easy like soup, I will hold up with one arm and you will help me add seasonings or stir the soup. You look so happy when you get to assist me and you always tell Daddy and your siblings, "I help Mama. I do a good job. I'm a good chef!"

- I went out yesterday and you told me today, "I miss you yesterday. I so sad." Awww!

- You were eating your lunch when you smiled sweetly as you dipped your carrot stick in your pasta soup and said cheerfully, "I so happy!" Day. Made.

Love,
Mom
