There are no longer just three little monkeys going through life with us. The original three have been joined by a fourth, who is perhaps the biggest monkey of them all! (Well, by stature, he is the smallest monkey of them all.) Elijah is growing up so fast! I can't get over how quickly everything is going with him. He said his first sentence yesterday, "Where's Mama?" Before we know it he'll be packing his back pack for kindergarten, and then what.......college? He climbs on everything and I think his favourite activity is emptying out the kitchen cabinets.
Benjamin is getting so grown up. He is a passionate little fellow. He feels things strongly and he is generous with his affections. He remembers almost everything he hears and repeats things at funny moments. You have to be very careful what you say around him!
Emily is still a sweetheart. She is well-liked by everyone. She loves school and her teacher. She plays with her baby dolls and loves art.
Jayson is our family naturalist. He memorizes details about plants and animals and likes to teach his parents and siblings what he's learning. His favourite classes at school (except for recess and gym) are science and music. Our school has a fantastic music teacher who is such a blessing. I love that he is teaching our kids a passion for music.
As for us, Wes is busy working on his Masters. His new hobby is called homework! He is loving school so far. I'm just busy keeping up with Elijah. At the end of the day we all crash!
