Jayden and Turning 4 years old

Yesterday was Jayden’s Birthday and it was what you want as a little Boy. You wake up after spending a good time with your cousins and your Grandparents. You get a Pumpkin scone and Thomas the Tank Engine toys.

Then you go to school and are in a play where you are a bird, you play with sticks and you sing about your bones. Then you go home with your other Grandparents and get to play with more cousins. You get Pizza and cake and more lego toys and sand toys and you are just happy.

As a father you cannot express the gratitude I feel with my extended family. My son is spoiled in love and no one deserves it more. He is a kind decent and happy boy.

He is the kind of Boy that likes to have a “Sick Bed” at the foot of his parents bed so that those tough nights he can come in and lie on the made bed under a table and sleep with his mommy and daddy.

He is the kind of boy that loves stay at home day, so he can play with his father mother. He likes to be around his family which is so great. He does not think we are boring, but another soul to play Lincoln logs or legos with.

One night while watching TV he saw people dancing, and he and Kallee put on one amazing dance show for Alison and me. It was so much fun we kept rewinding the song so they would keep dancing.

He is also getting so much better at expressing his feelings. I told him one time that he had to stop what he was doing to wash his hands and go to the bathroom. He said “I hate my daddy, he is mean”. Some people would be upset… but I was happy, because this is a stepping stone. He has never been good at expressing negative feelings with his words so this is big. I understood that he was just mad at me and not “hating” me. But he describe what he was feeling and that is important. It shows maturity and growth. I am so proud of him. More will come after we have his Birthday Party on Saturday.
