Playing Solo September 2, 2014, at 11:07 pm | Playing by himself is not Jimmy’s strong suit. He loves to be around people, and struggles to entertain himself without constant interactions from others. Especially now that his sisters are back in school and Danny’s not quite old enough to be a great playmate, I’ve been encouraging Jimmy to find things to do by himself for a few minutes. Apparently, some of my pleadings got through! The other day, I found Jimmy stretched out on the couch looking at a book (and holding a yellow whistle). I was so excited I had to document the moment!
(Oh, and Dad, you’ll be happy to know his book of choice was an illustrated version of Robert Louis Stevenson’s “Treasure Island.” He loved all the pictures of the pirates!).

ABOUT US I'm blessed to be saved by the grace of God, loved by my wonderful husband Jim, and embraced by my twin girls, Rebecca Faith and Susanna Joy and my sons Jimmy and Danny. I started this blog in May 2008 when I was hospitalized for pre-term labor at 24 weeks gestation. The Lord allowed me to keep the girls inside until they were 34 weeks along, and on July 27th, Rebecca made her debut, followed by Susanna, five minutes later, on July 28th. We ecstatically welcomed Jimmy into our lives on April 25th, 2011, and Danny on August 31, 2012. This blog has been a personal journal of faith and motherhood and the only way I can remember which child did what and when. Thanks for stopping by to share in my Faith and Joy! Feel free to e-mail me at: [email protected]. |
The boy has great taste.
