Jacob's First four years

I wanted to write a few things that I would want Jacob to know about his early years.........You have your favorite blanket and you call it RETE. We are not sure where you came up with the name we called it blankie to you so some how you got RETE from that.
You love to help us with chores, cooking, and cleaning. You like to unload the dishwasher on to the counter and then I put them in the cabinets.
 You are a very sensitive boy. Feelings mean a lot to you. You  always want to please us and have our approval.
You are so silly, always giggling. Making funny faces in the mirror or just watching your self talk in the mirror.
You eat everything in sight for breakfast, but like a bird for dinner. You will say you don't like something but when we are not looking you will take a bite. And if you do not finish your dinner you say "Well I guess no dessert for me."

You play with Lego's all day long well accept when you are playing outside but then you come right back in and pick up where you left off.








When we do school time you are usually fidgety and silly but that's why we home school so that we can get up and jump around whenever we want and I don't have to duct tape you to the chair which you need some days. We do school in front of the fire during the winter and both of us just end up in a trance staring at the fire but its nice quality time even if we get nothing done:)
