Okay, a few things.
I feel like a mean old lady, but these little neighborhood girls come rolling into the house and they just irk me. I listen to them looking at Mekhi's things in his room and I hear comments like, "can I keep this?," and really irritating was the "you better give me this for my birthday!" Excuse me? What the?!? Anyways...mean old lady. ;)
So, a few minutes later Mekhi and the two girls are shooting out what they do and don't believe in. It sounded like this:
Girl: I believe in Santa.
Girl: I believe in fairy tales.
Mekhi: I believe in JESUS!
I believe there were some me too's that followed and then Mekhi says, "if you believe in Jesus, then you don't have to be afraid of anything." Awww. So proud!
Lastly, at school they have a system where they pull a colored card as they disobey or are disruptive in class. Green is good to go then yellow, orange, and red. Mekhi has been working on getting 5 greeens in a row to earn a toy from the store, more specifically a star wars light saber. And today....he did it!! All greens.
So off to the store we go, Great Work buddy!!!
And he looks so big and grown up when he holds Tayvin!
