“E.F.G. spells Choose the Right!” ~ Tru

I haven’t recorded all the funnies over the past few months. Tru is into saying funny things. His vocabulary is increasing and he’s asking more questions.

My favorite thing lately is that during his prayers he says things like, “Grateful I can have a good, good day. Grateful the whole family can eat with me. Grateful I can make good choices.” And then he opens his eyes, gives us a thumbs up with a wink and a nod (asking for our approval about saying something ‘special’). He’s into saying 5 things during his prayers (ok… really we limited him because he would go on forever just saying the same thing over and over). So he always stops at some point and asks if he’s said 5 things. We have to say “Yes” and nothing else or he asks again.

Tru turned 4 on the 12th. He was excited to finally be 4 (since he’d been telling people he was 4 for a few months. oops!)

The Friday before during Fall Break we went to the New Lego Store. Tru got to pick out a tall cup of legos. His favorite were blue and green and red. When we came home, he played for a long time with them. He said several times: “I am sooo happy you bought me Wegos. Thanks mom!”

Saturday was his birthday and Jimmy made him scrambled eggs (or was it omelets?). Tru loves both! He opened his Planes Present from Grandma & Grandpa Price. He loved the singing #4 Card and the airplane & shirt. Jimmy took the kids (minus Liza) to see Planes at the Water Gardens (our favorite mom & pop cheap theater in Pleasant Grove).

Later that night we had the requested chocolate chip cake (that he helped make!). We opted for fried rice instead of the requested Raman Noodles for dinner. He loves fried rice too so it was all-good.

He was thrilled that we sang him Happy Birthday and he got to blow out the candles. He opened 4 presents from the fam… football jammies, a snatcher(thing that pinches stuff up from the ground), fruit snacks, & Lucky Charms (he had been asking for months for this cereal so I told him on his birthday he could have it).

Tru is 4. We are going to have a great year with our rock lovin’ extraordinary Truman!
