Notes about Joshua

I suppose he would manage to “type” some letters as the other 2 guys did, however, he is in bed.

For starters…Mr. Joshua is HILARIOUS. His facial expressions alone can send us into a fit of laughter. His vocabulary is quickly expanding and he is speaking in sentences. He likes to say “that’s awesome”, but of course it’s not very meaningful unless you can hear him slur it all together in person.

I mentioned this in a previous post, but since this is about Joshua, it bears repeating. At random he’ll say, “Hey, Mommy” He often receives (I’m ashamed to say) and exasperated, “What??” from Mommy. His response? “I looooove yoooou!” Which is said while holding up his fingers in the I Love You sign. And then I feel even more guilty for the exasperation. It’s so precious!

Joshy was a name many from the youth group at AFMC called him. Daniel still calls him that pretty frequently. In spite of the youthful nickname, he looks like such a little man. He always has. I remember people telling me that since the day he was born. He has a very expressive pair of big brown eyes, eyebrows that are used in the “grumpy, happy game”. He scrunches his eyebrows down, crosses his arms and says in a gruff voice “I’m gruuumpy!” The lifts his brows as high as he can and says “I’m haaaapy!” while throwing his arms in the air.

He is able to sing his ABC’s and gets most of the letters correct. Counts to 10, getting most correct.

Favorite toy: He really enjoys playing with tractors and motorcycles, HOWEVER, when he sees a real one he often gets very scared and doesn’t want them to “get him”.

He is my sleeper. He is the only one who will willingly lay down for a nap or go to bed. He gets his cork (pacifier) and blankie and usually wants “schocate milk”.

Well, I guess Joshua gets the most descriptive notes. I was a bit more distracted while working on the other 2.
