So, I was thrilled to find out when Kasen was a BOY! No bows, barbies, barbie shoes to step on and most of all no tangled hair to have to brush through! Instead we get cars to slide on, army men through the feet and thick hair he gets from Mom to keep up with. Not only that, but he has all the habits of a little boy. You know what I mean.. Jumps on anything that has a bounce to it as soon as I'm not looking, runs around the house naked when he gets the chance and any noise his body makes, must be announced (Does this stop with age by the way??). My favorite?.. every night the boy thinks I must smell his feet! Why, oh why, would I want to smell a four year olds foot after he has been playing all day. This temps me to want a girl! I must stand strong!
I do have to say though, I could not wait for this age. Danny and I are having a blast with him. He has started T Ball, and that has been a venture all in it's own. He is down and ready one minute and the next a nice airplane thousands of miles in the sky has his attention, it is a true hoot to watch! He has a personality all of his own. He helps around the house in setting the table, wiping the table, you know little things like that. At this age he can also get himself dressed and undressed.. which I'm sure some of you know is not always a good thing. We had these Red Fireman Rain Boots that lasted us about a year.. well he wore those things YEAR round... Thanks, Grammy! Made for some good photos.
One more thing.. We have been teaching Kasen to say "Yes Ma'am" and "Yes Sir" and I am so glad we are because when I call for him, and he comes out saying "Yes Ma'am", that just feels like a whole other level of respect. I truly wish I would have said that more to my parents growing up. Just my 2 cents on that.
All in all, Kasen is a good kid.
4 is a FUN age!!
