Keegan is halfway to three years old today! Our boy has grown up so much the last six months.
He is such a ball of energy and walks nowhere. He literally runs circles around the kitchen/living room every evening claiming "I so fast Mama! I so fast!" And he is! We get so many comments from people about how quick he is on his feet.
He's also quite a talker these days. He will reminisce about our vacation or a trip to the zoo, tell me all about it and ask "you remember that?!" Cracks us up. He begs to go to the places he loves most like "the monkey zoo", the park and his grandparents' homes. Lately he will stop and randomly tell me who is friends are. "Mama...Presley my friend. Mama....Preston my friend. Etc... Almost every sentence begins with Mama.
He loves to pray out loud. He blesses the food at dinner in this manner "Dear God, Thank you for food. Please keep Poppy safe. And please give Marley shoes. Amen." (Marley is our Compassion child in Guatemala and after hearing us talk about her and her needs for a few months, he became mostly concerned that she be provided a nice pair of shoes.) He prays it almost every time he sees her picture on the fridge.
He misses his sissy during the day but I think he is enjoying my undivided attention. I love to take him to music and movement at the library and watch him play!
Especially with his favorite little partner in crime....
He is loving his new preschool room at church. My sweet friend Lauren sent me these pics of him in chapel a couple of weeks ago. She said he was a hoot; singing, clapping and dancing.
Lining up to head back to class....Such a big boy now!
His favorite toys right now are his Thomas trains and his cars and the last few weeks he has started building "castles" with his duplo legos. He brings me books to read to him throughout the day and he actually sits still long enough for me to read them. He pulls "goodnight moon" and "the going to bed book" out of his book basket every night before bed. We read, sing, rock, then pray almost every night. He enjoys the routine and I enjoy holding my sweet boy that will be too big to rock one day too soon. As I say often, I'm so thankful God gave us this precious boy. Our bond is so special and I can't imagine life without this blonde haired, blue-eyed boy.
We love you Keegan Reese.
