I was thinking today how grown up Caden is becoming but how he's still such a little boy. Sometimes I forget that he's only 3 and probably expect him to do too much. But, let me tell you how proud I am of that sweet 3 and a half year old.
Here is a BRIEF summary of the great things he can do:
-He can bathe himself...start to finish!!
-He can completely dress himself
-He can brush his own teeth.
-He is wonderful about putting his dishes in the sink!
-He is wonderful with his sister! (Except for this morning when he was really trying to help me get her out of her favorite hangout...any bathroom! He came out of the half bath with her walking in front of him but he was holding her up with his arms around her neck! She was VERY angry!)
-He can make his bed....see!
-He compliments us all! Just recently he told me he was really proud of me for showing his Sunday School class how to pack the "boxes for the poor children"! It melted my heart!-He is learning his letters and their sounds at school and is constantly trying to figure out what letter words start with...he's getting pretty good!
-What am I most proud of Caden for?? I love to hear that boy pray! It never gets old...yes they are VERY long winded but they are truly a conversation with God...they are so precious! I also love to hear him tell AdEliz about Jesus!
I have so enjoyed this stage in his life despite the tantrums, the incessant "whys" and his new found ability to negotiate! He tells me often I'm his best girl in the world. That is besides Addison, she's also his best girl! I hope I'm still his best girl during his teenage years! Deep down I will be...I just know it!
