A Late Night

Serif went to naptime just before 3:00 today. We tried to wake him up just after 5:00 and then repeatedly every 20 minutes or so until we finally decided to turn his lights out and let him sleep for the night. I guess that was around 8:00. Jeff an I headed to bed around around 9:15 and about 15 minutes later here comes the boy. Not tired at all.

So it's now 10:00 pm and here he is . . . eating his dinner and watching Finding Nemo. We're in for a long night.

A Special Note

I came home from the store today and was greeted with this sweet note: "I hope you feel better. I love you!!! Serif"



I don't think I've ever seen you write more than your name. What a wonderful job. You must be so proud of yourself! Thank you, buddy. I love you more than words. ~ Mom

Rambling

Everyone has a birthday when they go number to number. You stop growing when you get older and God says stop. Jesus is our boss. Jesus last name is God. Jesus and God are our boss. Only Jesus and Ms. Sandra are the boss. Everyone needs a boss.

God is like my last name, Godby! You can call me Godby, Serif or Serif Godby.

A Thank You

We were writing a thank you to a girl who we rent from in Florida. I asked Serif to draw her a picture and told him he could draw whatever he wanted, then threw out some beachy ideas. He got everything ready and said, "I'm going to draw an astronaut!" Then a few minutes later he shows me this. He said he changed his mind and he drew Eva (from Wall-e) instead! I had him write her name and his so Mrs. Staci would know exactly who it is and who it is from. What a nice job!

Serif doesn't typically show a high interest in art and often prefers to do other things instead so we don't see his ability to draw very often. This actually impressed me that it was such clear form. His skills are really developing nicely! I think he must do more at school than we see.

Nice job, buddy.

Pan drums

It's been a long time since I've seen this. It was his favorite pastime 2 years ago!
