Jesus wants me for a sunbeam

Kaleb has had a fun first year in primary. It was kind of hard for me to let him go since I was his nursery teacher. Having a peanut allergy makes mommy worry a lot! Kaleb has truly been blessed with a teacher who is a lot of fun, keeps him safe, and helps mom not to worry so much. On the way home from church I usually ask Kaleb, "What did you learn about in class today? " Here were his answers several weeks in a row.



"our hands"

"our bodies"

"Jesus"

"Jesus"

"probably Jesus"



I think I'll keep asking even if I already know what is answer will be.

Pioneer Day

We had a fun Pioneer day activity at our church this past weekend. Kaleb's cousin Rose helped him milk the cow, he went on a hayride with his best friends, Heber, and Kowen and hopped in his first "sack" race. We had lots of good food, daddy grilled some dogs, and we had a blast. We love our ward family and always have a good time when we are together.

I am a child of God

The other night I tucked Kaleb in for bed, and started to clean up the kitchen. I turned the monitor on and heard him singing,

"I am hmm hmm hmm, and he has ent me ear, diven me erfy home wif pawrents tind and deor, weed me dide me watt behide me help me find da way teach me all dat i mus do to wiv wif him humday." He sang it over and over and over, and I called Aunt Amy and Aunt Kathy and anyone else I could think of, to make them listen. I must give his primary teachers most of the credit for teaching him this song. I often sang it to him, but he does things for other people that I can't get him to do. I am happy that my son is learning about God and where he came from, and why he is here.

Memorial Day

Kaleb loves to play outside! He loves the sandbox, golfing in the yard, playing ball on the driveway, running in the sprinklers, helping mommy and daddy water the flowers, visiting our neighbors, having a picnic in his little house or on a blanket. We have really enjoyed this warm weather!

Mommy finally got a new car after having the same car for 12 years. When we brought it home he hopped in, and had 2 questions.

Play my kidz bop cd like daddy's car?

&

Can I drive?

school

Kaleb's first year of preschool is coming to an end. He had his first concert, singing nursery rhymes. We could barely see him. (He is in the third row, below the boy in the yellow shirt at the end of the fourth row on the right, his head barely peaking out between twin girls in blue). He didn't sing, but that's a lot to ask a kid who didn't even talk at the beginnig of the year. I think the whole time he was looking for us. He did a good job!
Kaleb helped his class plant a garden near the playground at his school. They are growing many different plants and will get to see the "fruits" of their labor next year! Today I took him to the store with me, and after I asked him if he liked going to the store, he said "No, I'd rather go to school".

Easter

Kaleb had fun coloring Easter eggs this year that mommy later used to make deviled eggs for our family reunion we have every Easter.
