My First Born Son!


Noah is my first son. He has taught me a lot about boys! They move big, makes lots of noise and have boundless amounts of energy. They can get dirty in a second flat! They are nothing like puppy dog tails or snails. They are the holders of a mothers heart.

Noah has the most giving and tender heart of anyone I know. He really would give until nothing was left. His sister was in a play awhile back and they were raffling one bear at each performance. He spent $10 in change to buy ten raffle tickets. He happened to get lucky and won the prize. He gave it to Sam without hesitation and came back the next day, hoping to win one for Faith. This time he was only able to buy one ticket, because mom wanted him to consider the value of money.

Noah really has found the joy of giving. He expects nothing in return. He just likes sharing in the happiness. He can be lazy at times, but he does have a servants heart. He often ask if I want a Diet Coke or water, with crushed or cubed ice. Isn't that sweet? Often times, Noah will voluntarily make Samantha's breakfast. He is a little sweetheart.

Faith's best playmate is Noah. He will take her outside and jump on the trampoline or play in the sand with her. Faith truly loves Noah and looks forward to spending time with him. He lets her climb all over him. He is definitely a good big brother!

Speaking of brothers, Noah is so happy to have Luke as a little brother. He can't say enough about how cute Luke is. It doesn't hurt that Luke looks just like he did. Noah always wants to give Luke kisses. He will say mom are you feeding Luke, because I want to give him kisses. He knows that he has to wait if I am feeding him.
Outing with Noah
While Samantha was at camp, Evan and I had an opportunity to go out with just Noah. We took him to Golf-N-Stuff. We played a game of mini-golf, lazerstar, bumper boats and bumper cars. We even played some video games. It was so fun to have a special time to hang out with Noah. It was so obvious that he loved, but I can assure you I loved it more. After mini-golf, we went to Wendy's (his choice) for dinner and then to a movie. He wanted to invite Faith to the movie, because he knew she would really like it. That is so Noah. He is unselfish and loving! Evan and I opted to keep him an only child for a little longer. We left Faith at grammy's while we watched the movie.
