Sawyer is 4!!!!!!!

My little buddy turned 4 today. It was such a good, good day. Dennis decided to get him up early and take him to a special breakfast at Cracker Barrel. Boy, was he EXCITED!!! What a special time! I couldn't be more thankful to Dennis for doing that. Sawyer told everyone about it all day long. As soon as he opened his eyes, he wanted to know if he could get up and he wanted to know if he was 4 yet. I think he thought something magical was going to happen when he "turned 4". Bless him. He was so proud of his "4 year old" shirt that he got to wear all day. Some of Sawyer's "stats" are: He is about 42 inches tall and weighs about 38 pounds. He's still a little dude, but we're going to work on fattening him up a bit this year! Sawyer is the sweetest little boy in the world. His smile melts me. He is looked at and flirted with by every female he comes in contact with. He has no idea how much people "ooooh and ahhhhh" over how cute he is. He loves to sing, LOVES country music, and LOVES going to the farm with Dennis. He would rather be there than anywhere else. Hmmmmmmmmm, sounds like someone else I know. He's FIRED UP about starting Pre-K next week. He is soooooo excited about being in Ms. Sharon's class, just like Sadie was. He feels like he is so big. Yet, he's so tiny! He has just recently really expressed an interest in sports. He is always asking Dennis to go outside and play ball with him, which makes Dennis extremely happy. He and Sadie play together all day, every day. Their imaginations together simply amaze me. He will pretty much go along with whatever she says and he loves every minute of it. He just feels privileged that she asks him to play with her all of the time!

He still loves his momma, but he's not so "attached" to me anymore. And, yes....for those of you that want to know if I miss it, the answer is yes....I never thought I would miss it, but I do. He's always willing to make new friends and play with all kinds of different people. He's a FABULOUS sleeper and a pretty good eater. He loves candy over chocolate, just like his daddy. Every morning when he wakes up, I pick him up out of his bed and carry him into the den so that we can cuddle for a little while. Every. Morning. Wouldn't trade it for the world. He is a total goofball and makes me laugh hysterically on a daily basis. I'm beginning to learn that he is very smart. He memorized a Llama Llama book that I had read to him no more than a handful of times. It baffled me! He told me he wanted to "read" it to me, but I didn't really think he was going to actually "read" it! Ok, he memorized it, but STILL! He's also memorized several Bible verses this summer and he gets them so quickly! He's gonna be a smart little guy!! He is a precious, wonderful boy and I love him more than I can put into words. He is my little bubby, bud bud, Sawy, Sawdawg, Ninja, goober smoocher, and so many other things. Happy 4th Birthday to my most favorite little boy in the WHOLE wide world!!!!!
