Sometimes when I look back, I can't even believe it has been over 9 years since I became a mother. I don't think anything can ever change the way you feel when that first baby is born. Allan James had a very rough start to life, but he hasn't slowed down one bit ever since. Here are 10 of the reasons I love this kid:1. He is so smart! He knows way more about history and wars than I ever will or care to (but don't tell him I said that). He is the only child that when he plays 20 questions, picks the beaches of Normandy to be his thing we are trying to discover!
2. He is a "thinker." His questions are always deep and thought provoking.
3. He has given his life to Christ and is my brother!
4. He will play "house" with his sisters and is a good sport (most of the time).
5. He loves music.
6. His laugh! The boy loves life, and there is nothing better than watching "slap-stick" humor with him. It is funnier to laugh at him laughing than the actual funny thing!
7. He wants to be home-schooled. It is nice it is not a battle, and he wants to be home with his family.
8. He loves to be outside (even in this crazy hot weather).
9. He is a great camper, and a willing sport!
10. He is great with his baby sister, and I have no doubt he will be wonderful with a new baby!
