Jeremiah

Sweet things Jeremiah has been doing lately, other than locking me out of the apartment (see below):

Singing most of the words to "If the Savior Stood Beside Me" in Primary on Sunday. Well, not just singing...more like...belting it out. He used the right words bout 85% of the time, and the other 15% was "panda mommy panda mommy." (He sang in tune, too.)

Holding the top of his head with a huge grin, while we were in the monkey exhibit at the Zoo. A monkey was running along the rope that keeps the people out of the monkey area and in the people area, which Jeremiah was holding onto, and when it came to Jeremiah the monkey simply jumped over him and landed on the rope on the other side of him! It was crazy, and very surprising! Jeremiah wasn't quite sure what to think about that monkey jumping over his head--he took a stunned step back and grinned and held his head to keep safe.

Waiting patiently for his turn and following verbal instructions. (Thank you.)

Saying "I'm sorry" and meaning it (most times) when someone is hurt or tips over or is sad.

Saying good-bye to specific kids in his preschool class when he leaves school.

Holding Danielle's hand when we walk somewhere (I hold her other hand).

Singing Isaac's alphabet chant from kindergarten and getting the letters mixed up: D, D Zebra, dih, dih, Zebra!

Watching football on a big screen TV (muted) and standing in front, punching, saying, "Fight! Fight!"
