Eli

Naughty: Staying up late to play Lego's, draw, or play the Leapster under the covers.
Nice: confessing these things the next day.
Naughty: Sleeping in so long because you didn't go to bed until midnight.
Nice: Leaving a note for your mom outside her door.
This note says "Dear Mom, I know you miss Daddy, you deserve a great big hug."

He was already asleep when I found the note. It made me SO happy. I smiled and went in and kissed my sleeping little boy. I feel so blessed to have such a sweet little boy! He is very perceptive and kind and loving. I talk about Stewart with Eli but I really don't cry or anything. Yesterday I was very worried about Stewart and he was on my mind a lot. This letter was very sweet to get at the end of a day like that.

Becca,
I don't know how you do it day to day but at least you have a wonderful little guy to keep you going!
We have been thinking of Stew a lot lately as well and just hope and pray all is well. Let us know if you need anything!!!

What a good little guy. When we came back from deer hunting the first thing he wanted to do was get a camera so we could take a picture of him with the deer. Then he told me it was so he could show it to his dad and his dad would be proud. You should both be proud of such a loving little kid... or evil genius as he likes to be referred as.
