And how crazy that I now have a four year old??? After struggling for what seemed like forever through ages 2 and 3, 4 gave us about two weeks of absolute perfection. And then we were back to reality, but with 4 year old issues now. And for the most part, they are much better. Mason can be such a riot. The things that he says are hilarious! We are really enjoying him.
For his birthday adventure, we took him to his first movie theater movie where we saw Inside Out. His favorite character was Disgust, and we couldn't get enough of him saying it - "Disdust". Since then he has been to a couple of movies, which is one of the great things we are learning about having a big kid!
One of the funniest things he said to me shortly after turning four was "Don't you know Jesus died so that people could be twins." I asked for clarification a few times (cleansed?) but he really meant what he said.
He totally surprised me one morning as I was reading to him. I randomly quizzed him on a word (cat) and he got it right. Maybe a fluke I thought, so we tried again (dog) and he got it, too. He proceeded to sound out three more words all by himself, so now we are working on reading as often as we can. He would still much rather play Ninja Turtles or Legos than practice school things with mama, but I try to sneak them in as much as possible.
I'm sure there are many more hilarious things I could say about that boy, but this will do for now. We are so thankful for the four years we have had with him so far and pray for many many more!
