Trash Day and more!

Dear Noah,

You have grown so much in the past month...physically AND cognitively. You are so into trucks, airplanes, bulldozers, mowers, weed eaters, blowers, trash trucks, backhoes, diggers, bobcats....I could go on and on! You have the trash day and recyclable day memorized (Mon and Fri) and we HAVE to go out as soon as you hear the trucks coming up the hill...no matter if I'm in my pj's still or not (and I always am!). The trash guy (Andrew) is SO nice and puts on a show for you every time. He dumps the dumpster even if it's not all the way full, he honks, he uses the lift to lift the trash cans even if he can do it himself, and he always waves to you. The best thing happened on Monday...you got to go in the trash truck and pull the air horn!!!! He wanted to let you sit on the seat, but you didn't want to...I think you got nervous! Such a first born you are.

The other thing that you've accomplished this month is going to summer camp at a new place, staying with the babysitter, and going to Sunday school at a new church without crying!!! That's huge for you. You were so excited to tell us about Jonah and the Big Fish after your first Sunday school experience. We were so impressed! The Bible verse was Children Obey You Parents...the other day I said, "Noah, you need to listen and obey" and you added, "your parents". You must have really learned something! Now, we just need you to apply it!

Keep on growing my little man!

Love you,

Mom
