The Little Things #4

1.  Wesley yelling "BEYBLADE" and "SLUGBUG" (although it doesn't sound exactly right, you know what he is saying).
2.  Ethan-ism for the day: "It went down the wrong tomb" rather than "tube" when he got choked during supper.
3.  Aidan and his love for reading again.  He had lost it for a while, and now he reads a lot (so much that he is blocking out his surroundings while reading.)

The Little Things #3

1.  The boys' love for the song "Taking Care of Business" and how they dance to it.
2.  Running with Aidan.
3.  Our new game, and possible Lytle family tradition, "Dodge Egg."
4.  Our Charlie Brown tree; it now has some leaves.

The Little Things #2

1. Wesley putting anything rectangular (specifically a tape measure) up to his face and yelling, "Cheese!"
2. The downpour occurring now. Such loud rain, and those I love the most are home.
3. My newly installed ceiling fan.

The Little Things #1

Three things I am loving this morning:

1. Wesley's confident walk across the room. Seriously, it's like he owns the world and everyone answers to him.
2. Ethan's conversation with me regarding my job. He thought I teach 8th and 9th grade, not 7th. He used the word "toot" instead of "taught", but at least he did not use "teached".
3. Aidan's crazy hair after sleeping in. He just woke up, and I am having some flash-forwards to his teen years. His first words to me: "How many donuts can I have."

I am trying to do this once a week. I will focus on the little things, not the obvious ones (God, family, etc.)
