Stephen

One day I turned around and Stephen was reading. 

Weird.  When did he get so old?

 

Stephen wants to be a chemical engineer just like his Uncle Stephen.  When Chery and Stephen came for a visit, my Stephen made a beeline to give Uncle Stephen a hug before he hugged Aunt Chery.  I couldn’t ask for a better role model for my Stephen. 

I think school tires Stephen out.

Also, Stephen likes to wear socks.  All the time. 

Stephen loves LOVES LOVES his baby sister.  He wants to hold or kiss her all the time. 

He is a very sweet big brother.  I know Jane is going to look up to him and adore him when she gets a bit older.  They are 6 1/2 years apart.

Although they spend a lot of time fighting, Stephen and Boston do play together quite a bit.  It makes me very happy to see them play together.

They built these haunted houses and took naps in them one afternoon.  It looks a bit uncomfortable if you ask me.
