One of a Kind

On Sunday afternoon I had this conversation with Jeremy,

Jeremy:  Look at my sliver Mom!
(holding up the palm of his hand to show me)

Me:  Oh did it fall out?

Jeremy:  No I squeezed it out.  It persecuted!  And I did it!

So the next time you have a sliver that persecutes you Jeremy can help you out with it.

Jeremy is one of a kind.  He cracks me up!  When he is at his best there is no one sweeter.  Likewise when he is at his worst...well let me just say I try to persevere.  My very favorite things about Jeremy is that he loves to pray and when he does it comes straight from his heart.  He is a spiritual giant.  Another thing I love about him is that he is so determined.  Once he makes up his mind there is no changing it.  I'm figuring that as long as we can get and keep him on the right path, he'll be steadfast.  
His favorite color has always been orange.  And this is his favorite super hero getup.  He likes to mix up all of his costumes and he called them "mixed up superhero's."  The ensemble he is sporting in the picture above is an astronaut jumpsuit, The Flash mask and a blue lightening bolt cape.  He loves it but is somewhat self conscious about it.  He doesn't wear it out in public too often.   I just love Jeremy!  He is such a special boy!

Jeremy's 4th Birthday!

This year Jeremy wanted a Star Wars Clone Wars birthday party.  He really wanted a pinjata and since I couldn't find the right kind, and because they're now made out of cardboard and don't really break, I reused an old one from Riley's.  Jeremy was quite pleased.
Tyler's face was priceless when all the candy fell out.


Happy Birthday Jeremy!  We Love you so much!!

Tulip Festival

Several weeks ago we went to the tulip festival.  I am so behind on blogging.  It was beautiful and we had a great time.





There were several booths and one of the booths was a bird rescue.  The boys got to hold them.  Riley was very eager and Jeremy had to work up the courage.  Riley loved both but ....

This green quaker parrot was his favorite.





More Riley projects

This one was a creation out of our recycling.  Their are several room and all of them connect by tunnels or doorways.  It's hard to see in the picture I know.  There is a movie theatre room and a massive bowl of popcorn(made out of paper)  and an ice skating rink to boot.

I know this has some resemblance of an athletic cup.  Trust me!  It is NOT!  I don't think he's ever even seen one.  It's part of a large plastic egg from easter and a head strap made out of tape and crayons.
