Parker, the man!

Ok- well, Parker is officially 2 and a HALF! He is turning into SUCH a little boy and it thrills my heart and makes me sad all at the same time! So here is what he is up to!

-He told me the other day I was pretty....yep....I almost cried....that was the BEST!
-Every time he accidentally hits me and I say "ouchy, you hurt mommy", he will say "oh, sorry mommy"....("oh, sawdry mommy" is really what it sounds like :))
-When we were at the park today, he wanted me to climb up the rope ladder...so as I was climbing up to the top he said "good job, mommy"!
-After he says I love you, I will tell him "I love YOU more" and point at his chest...he will then point at my chest and say "I duv YOU moe" and we go back and forth...it's the best :)
-He loves asking me to cry..."mommy cry"...so I act like I am crying and he thinks it's hilarious...so then I say "are you going to give mommy hugs since I am crying?" and he says "ya!" and comes to give me hugs
-He is ALWAYS hungry..."my drundry, mommy"
-He tells me "my chaird", which is "I'm scared"- when it's dark, and he will cling to me. It's SUCH a wonderful feeling that he finds safety and comfort in me as his mommy
-He LOVES his little bubba
-He is learning how to be a gentleman by always opening my door and giving me his seat
-He'll say, "I'll be right back" and point at me exactly the way I point at him and say the same thing
-He LOVES his room...every time someone comes over he says "My room?" or if it's just Beckham and I, he will say "my room, Mommy? Mommy, bubba my room???" and he says it with SUCH excitement and hope that it really will happen!
-We are practicing "yes ma'am", and "no ma'am" and yes please and no thank-you.
-When I change his diaper I always say..."don't kick mommy...that hurts mommy", he would always say "hurrrrt mommy", "I kick this way!" and then kick in the opposite direction. :)
-We pray together....I ask him who or what he wants to pray for and he will tell me names. We also talk about what/who we want to thank God for...it's so special, getting to spend time talking about the Lord with him!!
-He loves coffee!!!! YIPPEE!!
-He loves going through the car wash...asks for it every time we drive by it.
-I will call for him in the house "Parrrkeerrrr" and he will yell back "YA???" hehe :)
-He loves to drive Beckham in the back of his truck

Ohhh...this boy....he is one of my life thrills. I love everything about him. It's such a joy to be his mommy. I love watching him everyday become more and more of a little boy. I LOVE getting to have little conversations with him since now I can understand him and he understands me. I love my roll. And even though there are days when I get SO frustrated with his "two's", I wouldn't trade them FOR THE WORLD...I wouldn't give up this life for anything! I love it!
