The big 0-3

Sam is 3! I can't believe I have a 3 year old. Old...that's what I am! :)

Sam, you are a cute boy. You are very sweet and kind. You have more energy then a dozen other 3 year olds put together. You always say please, thank you, and sorry. You give great loves (hugs) and even better smiles.

You love:
dinosaurs
trains
telescopes and binoculars
watching shows
helping Mom clean and do chores
going for rides in "Sam's car"
going to Grandma's house
going to stores with Dad to see trains
animals
chicken nuggets
red spaghetti and "white spaghetti" (Alfredo)
bologna sandwiches

you like to do things yourself now:

you love to go find treats in the pantry and bring them to us behind your back like you are hiding them

you think really hard, get an idea and say, "I know" really loud while pointing your finger up

you love your "big blankie" (the one Mom made when she was a senior in high school)

you love to watch movies and have treats in mom's bed

you know all your letters and numbers 1-20, you can even read your numbers 1-12

you can say your own prayers, with a little help here and there

you can almost sit through family night

you LOVE nursery

you love to see the temple out your window

your roar is the best around

you love to read books, especially non-fiction ones with real pictures

you love to "play with friends" and cry when ever anyone leaves your house

you love cake and parties

it takes you a while to wake up in the morning, you like to cuddle up and watch a show before you start your day

running is one of your favorite things. you love to run and chase and play hide and seek

you love to go on rides in Dad's car before he goes to work

James loves you because you are such a good big brother who helps and shares (most of the time)

Your Mommy and Daddy love you so much. You are the best biggest brother ever. You keep us on our toes and help us to laugh everyday!
