The Lea-Log: Christmas Lights

Christmas Lights

Before Thanksgiving we have been seeing a few houses with Christmas lights up and we point them out to the kids. So lately anytime Tai sees lights at night, be it car headlights or just any regular lights coming from a house or office building, he says "Wow, lights!" So it was nice when we took the kids on our annual adventure to the Christmas lights at Temple Square so Tai could see some real Christmas lights. Jayda thought they were very pretty, too.

Tai loved the fountains more
than the lights, I think.

Jayda is an outgoing 6 year old, able to befriend all types of personalities. Our big first grader loves reading and writing stories. She wants to be an author and a librarian when she grows up. She also loves singing and performing--especially when it is one of the songs she wrote. She is a soccer player, a gymnast, a dancer, and a swimmer. She still loves Superman and tells us she wants to marry him someday (he is a common character in many of the stories that she writes). She loves her new baby sister, Jasmyn, and has been such a wonderful helper with her and Tai.

Tai is the middle child in our family.
One outstanding feature that Tai has is his unnaturally long eyelashes. At the hospital, Tai was famous. Nurses would come in to Jen's hospital room and instead of using her name, she would be referred to as the mother of the long-lashed baby. He is now an energetic 2 year old and a total mama's boy. You will hardly see him without a toy car/motorcycle/train in his hand. Often you will catch him belting out a rendition of Queens "We will, we will...ROCK YOU" or "I like to move it, move it" from Madagascar. On the more sensitive side, he is always the first to offer to say a family prayer at the dinner table or before bed.
