Hey everyone! Just an update! Seth is getting so big! We have been fishing all summer long. On his very first fishing trip with his very first cast, he caught a huge Catfish on his little Spongebob Squarepants fishing pole. He was beside himself. On a sadder note, Seth's cat Jenkins passed away :( We were all sad and not really sure what to tell him. I couldn't lie to him so I said "Seth, Jenkins died and is now in heaven with Jesus." He says, "Mommy, why Jenkins in church? Jenkins not die, Jenkins ann (ran) away." So we left it at that. I told him the truth and he chooses to believe what he wants. Anyhow, we got a new cat who is white and pregnant. He previous parents called her Princess and I wanted to keep it close to the same so Seth chose to add Milo and so he calls her "Princess Mi-Lo." What a sweet little man I have. A little while back he got a new dog who he named "Hank" but calls him Pank or Hanky Panky! Hank loves to play with Seth. He climbs all over him and usually Seth doesn't mind. If he has not had a nap it is a different story! Seth has finally adjusted to the new house and I am so thankful for that. We sold the mobile home and the people were taking the under-pinning off. Seth and his Papaw drove down there and when Seth came home he said "Momma, the old house broken." I was a little sad for him as well as sad for myself. That was the place where I began my family first with Nathan and then later adding little Seth. There are many new memories being made at the new house and I am so thankful for that. The other day I finally got Seth's curtains up. He was so surprised when he walked in the room. He said "Oh Momma, dat's my curtains." Also, everynight we read a story or 2. Right now he has a couple of favorites: THE THREE BEARS and LASSO THE MOON. He can "read" both of them pretty well. I say read because he knows every word, not that he can read. But it is so precious. Here is a small preview from Lasso the Moon:
(Time for bed little tex, rio rosie good night. Jump in your bunkbeds and close your eyes tight. Now dream little cowpokes, heard stars to the sky, then make a wish on the first star you spy. A shooting star is galloping away, giddy-up little parnter and round up that stray. Hitch up the chuck wagon to a comet's tail. So wranglers have vittles on the star dusty trail. Kindle some campfires in the milky way. So ranch hands can sing yippie-ki-i-yay. Lasso the moon tug it way up high. As coyotes howl a lullaby. Mosey down a moon beam, the way home is clear. Git along little doggies, the barn is near. Close the corral no more work to do. For a happy sleepy buck-a-roo. Cowboys and cowgirls sweet dreams in the hay. Till you saddle the sun and ride into the day. Goodnight.)
Time bed ittle Tex, Rosie good-night, Jump in bunk-beds, eyes tight
Deam Cowpokes, Stars to ky, make ish on first star eww spy
