Stephen is an extremely loving and thoughtful little boy. Here is an example of his incredible sweetness.
One day I told him a story about a birthday I had when I was in Kindergarten or First Grade.
The morning of my birthday I opened my presents at breakfast before school and was thrilled to receive a My Little Pony with beautiful iridescent wings that could flutter if you pushed the little button. I had to leave my new treasure at home and go to school. Imagine my dismay when I came home to discover that my little brother, Allen, in my absence had busted those lovely plastic wings right off of my pony! My mom felt bad that it had happened and tried to tape them back on but it really was never the same.
A week or two after I told this story Stephen built this for me:
He said it was to replace the winged pony that had been broken when I was little! I was blown away by his memory, sensitivity, and creativity to make this for me. I love my little Stephen!
My numero uno wonderful guy is Scott. He is a scout leader in our ward and had to go for some overnight training. He purchased a new canvas scout belt and it was too long for him. Instead of assigning the task to me. (Which would have been fine). He tackled the problem himself by chopping the excess length off and then hemming the raw edges on the sewing machine. Yeah, it is really pretty attractive to see my hubby sewing.
Boston is a very passionate child and he is full of energy and adventure. His sweet little knees and head are almost always banged up from his reckless abandon in playing. He is a wonderful guy because one of the most common phrases I hear from him throughout the day is “Mommy, you’re cute!” He says it A LOT. I am starting to believe him. 
I think it is his way of saying “I love you, pay attention to me!”
