Lucy

Lucy won an American Burger gift card in December and decided that she wanted to take her friends to get milkshakes. She was so sweet and had so much fun.

She also started fine art classes with Jackie Bird. She came home the second day with an amazing picture of a bird. I thought for sure she had traced it but she didn't! She is so talented. I've never seen her so focused and interested in anything that we have put her in before. She loves art.

Lucy had mentioned that she wanted to try soccer. We love that she wants to try new things so we signed her up. The morning of her first game she asked if there were two goals or if everyone kicks into to the same goal. Clearly, she doesn't know much about soccer. But it didn't stop her from going out there and doing her best. She was great. And she is definitely an example to me. She's not afraid to try new things and just go for it.

Luke and Jacob

Luke and Jacob turned 4 in February. Luke can spell his name and knows all of his letters and most of their sounds. He is really good at using scissors. He typically comes home from school and gets out his homework and does it right away. He can use a glue stick without help. He is an early riser and usually wakes up before anyone else and plays quietly until we do. He is quiet in Sunbeams and sits reverently in his chair.

Jacob loves to play games with superheroes, firemen, or policemen. He is so funny and keeps us laughing all the time. He prefers real actors to cartoons. He is a little more dependent on adults because he thinks he cant do things. Although usually when he tries, he does a great job. He helps me a lot with the dishes and with Molly and earned enough money to buy a toy from the dollar store. Of course he chose a police kit with gun, badge and walkie talkie.

Both boys started Tball a few weeks ago. They are so handsome in their uniforms. Their first game was hilarious to watch. Luke concentrated so hard and was pitcher and first baseman. Jacob was a little more of a wanderer. Although one time Jacob tackled a girl, got the ball from her, raised it up in the sky and proceeded to yell, "I got the ball! I got the ball!" He continued to shout that out the whole rest of the game. I loved watching them play, especially being brothers on the same team.
