Noah had a baby in his tummy, a long time ago, when he was a grown up and when the baby came out of his tummy it wasn't breathing?
Did you know that Noah has a grandma that has "petted" a deer?
Did you know that a stranger kidnapped Noah and tried to cut his head off?
Did you know that one time, a long time ago, Noah was riding a "poison horse" and it ate a wolf?
Did you know that Noah knows all about the letter "A" because he went to school a long time ago?
I'm telling you, Noah almost has me believing in reincarnation. He is quite a character and the stories he tells--well, let's just say they're kind of scary. He is so animated and dramatic, he's always got us laughing about something. The other night he prayed that Hunter would "grow up and act like a five year old." I couldn't help but chuckle through the rest of that prayer. This afternoon, Denver was getting frustrated with a lego "lawn mower" he was trying to build and was crying quite a bit. Finally, Noah said, "Ahhhh. . .Denver, sweetheart. I will help you." He's so hilarious and sweet and such a snugger. Every night right around 3:00am he comes into our room and very quietly, very patiently taps me on my shoulder until I wake up. And then, he just stands there smiling, waiting for me to pull him in bed with me. It's like he knows I've been waiting all night for him to come and he's so proud of himself for not oversleeping. No matter how exhausted I am, I can't help but smile and snug him, for at least a few minutes. He's just so darn cute. And yet, he sure can whine and when he doesn't like something--the squeals that come out of his mouth. It's no wonder I'm going deaf. I think he cries almost as much as he's happy, if not more. But, when he's happy he's wonderful and we're sure glad we have Noah in our lives.
