Matthew turned the Big 2 earlier this month and I might have to say, (for the 100th time) this is my favorite age yet!!! There are days when I sit and laugh at Matthew as I see his personality develop. He is such a funny, sweet, strong willed kid. He loves to sing, dance and mostly entertain. He can also carry a very serious face when in a crowd but I know behind that stern look, his brain is taking in so much! He is starting to understand that his brothers are "real" little dudes and not babies stuck in a baby seat. He is starting to ask for them, when they are napping and attempt to play with them. Matthew is talking very well. He can count to 10, sing his ABC's( forgets about half of them) but lights up when he says Z, and can REMEMBER just about everything we teach him or say. He is very smart and we cant wait to see how he does in school. Although, his mommy-itis kicked in about a month ago and he really doesnt like for me to leave his side! So I'm asking for prayers on the first few days of school.
Matthew weighed in at 33.5 lbs and measured 3 ft tall!!! I'm so proud to have big, tall boys like their daddy!
I sit and wonder somedays at what Matthew will do when he grows up. I pray that he will have a heart for Jesus and be very loving. That he will always put others before himself and that he will always tell the truth. But as you can see in this picture- his interest in music and dancing, is making me wonder if we have a little rockstar in the brewing. He sure does bring a smile to our faces and we couldnt ask for more!
