The Old’n Days

Posted by Josh

This morning Kristee was talking to Gavin about what he was going to wear. She said I hope that they aren’t going to have spaghetti at school today. (they had picked out a white shirt)

She asked him if he remembered that Great Big Paw Paw use to wear a red shirt whenever he had spaghetti. After a minute Gavin said, “Did he use to do that during the old’n days?” Then he said, “Yeah I remember the old’n days!”

Kristee reminded him that his old’n days really weren’t that long ago, Lol!

Prayer Time

Posted by Josh

Today I went to the kid’s school to be a part of their valentine parties. Gavin’s teacher had something to tell me, right when I got there. She said, that during this week since it is Gavin’s snack week he led in prayer time. She said that he prayed an incredible prayer today. They had talked about needs within the kid’s families earlier on in the week. They hadn’t gone over the prayer request today, but Gavin prayed for those who needed prayer from earlier on in the week. She was amazed at the fact that he remembered to pray for those specific things they had talked about earlier in the week.

Another one of the mom’s who was there earlier came and told me the exact same thing that his teacher had said. She said that it brought tears to her eyes to hear a 5 year old praying such a deep prayer. I think it is awesome to hear and see our kids praying at such a young age and I hope they continue to make that an important part of their lives.

Your My Step Dad

Posted by Josh

Gavin told me that I was his step dad tonight and that his real dad was Jeremiah. I asked, “Who is Jeremiah?” He said, “From the Bible.” I asked him what did Jeremiah do and replied, “He wrote Bible verses, but died and you are my step dad.” I asked him a couple more time about what he did and he kept telling my that He wrote bible verses, and then told me that he was also a fisherman that wrote Bible verses.

It amazes me as to where he comes up with this stuff. Too funny!!

The Sleepover

Posted by Josh

Well the sleepover was a success, Gavin stayed all night long and had a blast!! He said that it was a lot of fun and he didn’t once think about coming home. It was right up his alley since they got to watch a movie last night. Now the only problem is that now he says that he wants to have a sleep over for his birthday. We’ll just have to see about that one, I know one day I won’t mind. But the thought of 5 and 6 year olds running around and trying to get them to sleep doesn’t sound like the most fun to me.

Slumber Party

Posted by Josh

Gavin is going to have his first slumber party tonight at one of his friends house for his birthday. Gavin is really excited about getting to the chance to go and spend the night at his friend’s house. I will be interested to see how he does. He has already been told that he is going to get to watch a movie with them tonight, which makes him even more excited. I hope that it is a good experience for him and he enjoys it. I would rather not get that call in the middle of the night saying that he wants to come home, but it’ll be alright if it does happen.

He keeps asking if it’s time to go yet, so I know he is ready!!

Speechless

Speechless

Halee got $20 for her birthday and was speechless. The funny thing is that after she got it, she went to tell Gavin about it and he said, “So, do I care?” Didn’t get that part on video.
