Sam is doing so much better today! He is really acting like himself and I am so glad that I can hardly stand it! We went to the indoor playground with Kim, Addison, Reagan and Tom today and Sam ran around the playground forever. He had to announce when he was running and he "crashed" over and over again. Oh, it is so much fun to be the mommy of a little boy! There were some bigger boys there, too and they were pretending to be a train, and Sam just grabbed onto the back of the last boy and joined in their fun. I couldn't have been happier!

This little guy is growing up so fast. Today, after we played with the hose, we had to change clothes. Sam picked out his clothes (yikes) and tried to put them on all by himself. When I tried to help him, he said "by sefff." He wants so bad to be big! Another thing that he has done recently just warms my heart. In my car, we have the veggie tales CD and Travis Cottrell's "The Lamb Has Overcome." I listen to that CD constantly when Sam isn't in the car. Occasionally, I just need to praise and I tell Sam that we are going to listen to Travis for a minute. The other day, I put in Sam's veggie tales CD and he said "no veggie tales, Travis." He wanted to praise, too!! Then, he said "BIG Travis," which means he wants me to turn it up! I was delighted to and we praised the Lord together. Not to freak anyone out, but Sam even raised his hands to "Sanctuary" which cracked me up and I think that it probably made the Lord smile, too!!
