Everyday Life

Lately, we haven't had anything "blog-worthy" to report, but I must admit the phase we're in with Grayson is pretty good at the moment. I know the minute I share this with the world things will change, but we're all having a lot of fun together.

With Thanksgiving nearly upon us, we've been reading and talking a lot about what it means to be thankful. I can tell he's soaking it all in and he often (out of nowhere) starts listing things he's thankful for (usually family members). He also started wanting to write people thank you notes unprompted which makes my heart happy.

Gray loves holidays and Christmas in particular, so the fact that every store we visit already has trees up and Christmas songs playing thrills him to no end. Of course, his daddy is a firm believer in not putting a single decoration up until after Thanksgiving so we haven't quite pulled our holiday cheer down from the attic.

Another fun development is Grayson's interest in learning to write. He wasn't very excited about it until he started Pre-K and now he can write his first name without assistance. Everywhere we go he's identifying letters or at least trying to. It's fun to see everything click inside his brain as he puts it all together.
