What a guy!

Jackson and I spent some much needed one on one time before Micah started working away from home again. I told him we were going to hang out, just me and him, and he said with excitement, “Go to pool store!?!” Wow – O.K. sure! So, I took him to the pool store to get our water tested, get an ice cream cone at McDonalds, and then headed over to the puppy store and outdoor kids play area that he loves at the mall. Well, he played and had a great time there, but then decided to wonder into a store, “The Children’s Place.” I followed him to see what he was up to, and he ended up picking out this great shirt and sun glasses. They were even on sale! He’s been needing some bigger shirts (he must have known), so I was glad that he picked out something that looked nice and that he liked! We had a great time, just the two of us!

Besides picking out his own clothes and sunglasses, we’ve been working on chores lately. He is an awesome helper! We made a chore chart with pictures of a few basic chores he can help with and one of them is making his bed. I’ve been teaching him to fold his blankets – Well, after several weeks, he decided he wanted to fold them totally by himself, and here’s what they looked like. Not too shabby, eh? He was very proud and so was I! Now when does the excitement for chores wear off?
