Each morning for the last few weeks Corban has started a new routine. I first hear his door slam shut over the monitor (I don't even NEED the monitor to hear this racket), then comes the banging of my doors while he tries to open them, then the soft sound of sleepy feet dragging across the carpet. Now my favorite part comes without fail.
"Mom, can I way down wif you?" in the softest whisper a 3 year old can mutter, I turn to see these big brown eyes peering over the top of the bed.
"Sure buddy, climb on in." I mumble in my half awakened state. After being trodden on or climbed over (depending on the day) Corban lies down next to me and wraps his arms tight around my neck.
"Mmmmm, I gwad to see you Mom!" The words that start my heart for the day.
"I'm SOOO glad to see you Corban!"
Our daily routine wouldn't be complete without the final step. After we settle in and get cozy to drift off to sleep again, "Mom, sing me song." So I oblige, dry throat and all.
Tarryn
Our 12 year old 'tween-ager' is full of spirit. When she's not singing and dancing, she's swimming in dirt! Our well-rounded girl is growing up and Dad is having to start fighting off the boys. :(
Makade
This 10 year old kid is filled to his head with silliness. He'll do anything to make his siblings laugh and slap-stick is his forte.
Corban
Our middle child is 6! Corban has such a glowing personality, not to mention a sense of humor, and an uncanny ability to repeat lines from any show he's seen.
Kellan
Our 3 year old is filled with new things to share with us each day and is never short of words. -Especially funny words and phrases.
Javen
For being only 16 months old, this little guy is full of fun and artistic ability. He's the next Michelangelo - except Javen prefers working on walls 3 feet and under..
