I want draw. I want draw.\u201d he pleads every single  time his eyes fall the container of crayons. Really. So that\u2019s 15 times a  day. Unless I hide the container. He has the attention span of a 2 year  old. The he proceeds to color on every surface except his coloring  book.<\/p>\n<p>* Every single pair of jeans looks like this. I need to patch them  and about 5 other pairs of his jeans. During the day, I fully intend to  mend in the evening (I <em>shudder<\/em> at the idea of my boys near the  sewing machine). Youtube must have a video on it, right? When evening  comes, I\u2019m tired or I would rather veg or I have other things to do. In a  bit of rut-cycle.<\/p>\n<p>* Mom and Dad L. unloaded the trailer. Noah was counting down the  days until the infamous Lego would come out of the trailer. He required frequent reassurance that indeed the Lego was in the  trailer and indeed there was more Lego in that trailer than he had every  seen. So, on Saturday the trailer was unloaded. On Sunday, Noah invited  himself over within seconds of seeing Opa and Oma at church. Then followed 5 days  of agony, while Noah spent good portions of each day inventing  scenarios that would allow him to visit Oma. \u201cMom, you go to Oma\u2019s and  talk and I will come and play with the cars.\u201d As if mentioning Lego  would make me suspicious of his intentions. On Friday, he was invited to  sleepover. By himself. Initially he refused but several hours later he  warmed up to the idea. The following morning I picked him up and he was in all his glory: playing playing playing. And running and shouting. Wound up and excited.<\/p>\n<p>* Next week he turns 4. I can hardly believe it.<\/p>\n<p>* Oh I pray that you never lose your spark and zest for life.<\/p>\n<p>* Brotherly love.<\/p>\n<p>* My neighbour needed to size the newsboy cap she crocheted. Isn\u2019t it adorable?<\/p>\n<p>* We have ourselves a hockey nut. He begs to go outside and play  hockey. Which is awesome. But generally, I have to come and play hockey too. Not as awesome. He holds the stick  like a pro and is pretty good at hitting the ball.<\/p>\n<p>* Standing in the shower, mouth wide open and catching the water. This kid also has a zest for life but in a totally different way.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Post #42 of personal project 52 weeks. * \u201cI want draw. I want draw.
