My boys
My boys create guns out of anything. Currently its lego’s. And their favorite thing to kill is zebras and monkeys. There are SO many zebras and monkeys that try to attack us ALL the time. They used to love to attack each other, but enough spanking as occurred that they now realize that they are each others friends and not to be shot. My boys shoot animals not people; at least most of the time....
My boys love to roll in the grass and dirt. They also love to grab Tannie Bekah and roll over her in the dirt. They love when they roll me into the dirt and I get full of grass just like they do. They have discovered that rolling over me into each other is a ball of fun.
My boys like to be pushed so high on the swing that they hit the tree branches. Higher is better and when we accidently crash into each other we love it! It might give Tannie Bekah a heart attack but we don’t understand that. To us, it is the best sort of fun to bump into each other.
My boys come to me with something bleeding at least once a day. My boys have discovered that Tannie Bekah has magical kisses that heal any boo boo and that shaking it off makes anything instantly stop hurting. Its amazing.
My boys love to give hugs to me and to each other. They also love to kiss each other on the head the way Tannie Bekah does. They love to sit on Tannie Bekah’s lap and snuggle for a few moments than be tickled to death. My arms are always full of someone loving me and being loved by me.
My boys are full of desire for admiration. They want Tannie Bekah’s recognition and appreciation for every new jump mastered on the trampoline. They always yell for me to watch every move they make and they seek so badly to receive the high five of a job well done.
My boys are fighters. They’ve already killed over 200 lions defending me. I never worry for my safety because they are always on the lookout for naughty monkeys and lions and tigers coming to eat me.
My boys don’t like to drop things into the buckets at clean up time. Rather, they like to “pee” them in from their waist. It is their new favorite thing and is causing Tannie Bekah a hard time trying to break this new favorite habit that has developed.
My boys favorite thing is to get me so dizzy spinning them that I fall down and they can tickle me. They have discovered my ears and my neck make me giggle and laugh so hard. It is their new objective in life to cause me to squirm around like they do.
My boys love love love to be picked up from their feet, hung upside down and spun around and around. The faster the better.
My boys have learned that they can run and jump into Tannie Bekah’s arms and be caught. The faster they run and the harder they jump the more excitement it causes Tannie Bekah to have. They love when she is making noise.
My boys have discovered they have a head, shoulders, knees and toes, and they love to sing the song that goes with those body parts.
My boys still cry in the morning when their parents drop them off. They love their parents a lot. Thankfully, within a few moments they realize they are ok and will see their families at the end of the day.
My boys love apples. And they also love curious george. No other movie or monkey for that matter can compare to how silly he is.
My boys know the difference between a 4x4 car and one that doesn’t have 4X4. And they ALL like 4x4 cars better.
My boys make me smile. Every new phrase grasped is cause for a celebration. Every new time they listen just a tiny bit quicker is reason to smile inside. Each time I get a surprise hug my heart swells.
My boys are currently the biggest part of my day. They are hilarious. They are sweet. They are naughty. They are special.
My boys know the frustrations of being in a classroom where there are 4 other languages going on at the same time. They have learned the difference between saying “please” and “give now.” They know how difficult it is to convey what they really mean and they know the look Tannie Bekah gets when she feels bad for their frustrations.
My boys would rather eat with their hands then silverware. Though they know perfectly well how to use a fork and spoon, their fingers and hands just serve the purpose much better. They’ve also realized that if they remember to wash with soap and water before the meal, Tannie Bekah will usually let them eat like that.
My boys pray over their meal in their native language. They love to pray before a meal. They know that Tannie Bekah gets all teary eyed hearing them pray. My dear boys don’t realize that hearing their sweet simple prayers could be my favorite part of each day.
I wish you knew my boys like I do.
But I hope this helped you to see all that goes on in a day spent with my boys.
