LOGAN'S 4!!!

My baby turned 4 yesterday! He is growing up so fast, I feel like life is slipping by and I'm not taking advantage of it. I miss infants...I don't want anymore...I just miss the baby stage where they are so precious and tiny and rely on your every decision. I enjoy holding other people's babies...that's good enough for me. What a strange stage to enter...now leaving child bearing years and entering child rearing years. I'm looking forward to all the changes life is going to afford. Today is a beautiful day. The sun is shining, all our blinds are open, a window in every room is open, I've cleaned most of the house, there's a nice breeze that comes in through the window as I sit on my bed and type this post, and I'm feeling very calm inside. I can hear the frogs croaking outside and I'm half tempted to go catch some so the boys can take care of them (I know who will end up taking care of them, so I'll refrain). They do sound like so much fun. Saturday night Logan started getting scared of the croaking from the frogs...I just reassured him that they are nice and he was fine. He's growing up, but still so small. I love having him home with me. He's so independent, yet wants to be with me all the time, too. I'll let him stay little a bit longer. :)

I know I'm raising a little man that can speak up for himself. Yesterday at church the Primary Secretary was not around and they didn't have a list of the birthday's for Jr Primary. Well, Logan said it was his birthday, and they hearing that nearly every week from one of those little faces were hesitant to say ok. I was told he was very adamant. His words were, "I'm serious, I'm 4! Today is my birthday! My birthday is March 8th, Sunday, this is my birthday! I really am 4!" Or something to that effect. I'm glad he stood up for himself and didn't back down because adults were questioning his knowledge. That's a little glimpse into our little man's personality, too. He's very vocal and knows what he wants. He's a joy to have around. I love him so very much and I am so grateful the Lord sent him to our family!

Here's 4 reasons I love my Logan Bogan:
1. He's so very loving...always saying "I love you" to everyone he can
2. He loves his brother's so much and loves to play with them, as long as they are nice to him
3. He always gives me big "Eema hugs" which are "Gramma Scott hugs" and I feel a bit closer to my mom whenever he does throw his little arms around my neck
4. He's attached to my hip, but he can be his own person at the same time. He can let go when necessary, and that's all I can hope for.

I LOVE YOU MY SWEET LOGAN!!
