Cute Kid Contest: Moose edition

-
I couldn't deny Moose's request to join in the cute kid contest - those baby blues are about as cute as they come! Here are his words as to why he should win the contest hosted by Freckles & Fudge and Unexpected Surprises.

Hi! My name is Moose and I'm 3 years old. Everyone knows that little brothers are pretty cute and so is mine. But big brothers are cute, too! Quite possibly even cuter than their mini-mes.


I think that too often it's the nice guys who come in last. I'm one of those nice guys (so is my dad). I think that "cute" should encompass a person's inside as well as outside. I take care of myself. I work out: I love to run, do push-ups with my daddy, swing, and yoga with my mama.


I'm a pretty good baker (which is good because I also like to eat what I bake). 


My dad has shown me that taking care of myself includes where I live and lay.
To that effect, I also like to tidy up and help make beds.


Ok so those aren't physical "cute" things but I have some of those to offer too! 
My mom helps me take care of my teeth so I have a really great smile. 
Look at these pearly whites!
I also happened to inherit my dad's great eyes:
blue with long, dark lashes 
(don't be jealous ladies, I'd look silly in mascara).


With the taking care of myself, I've gained quite the muscular package! 
Anyone want tickets to the gun show?

perhaps this are costume-enhanced muscles, but who else can pull them off so well?

I'm not nearly as fashionable as my brother. 
I prefer comfy sweats and t-shirts over ties and vests (he's such a preppy!),
but I will say that I look pretty darn good in a nightshirt
(that is perhaps my aunt's old t-shirt).

The best thing about a cute big brother?
We are awesome at sharing (sometimes).
Doesn't it just make you want to say "awww"?


So while traditionally, the little brothers are the cutie pies, I think it's time for a big brother to shine. 
Not only are big brothers good at taking care of ourselves & sharing, we look good doing it!!

Have a cute big brother (or other cute kid)? Join in the contest at Freckles & Fudge and Unexpected Surprises.

MOB Society: Bragging on Boys

-
Image
Like my friend Erin shared in her "bragging" post, I don't necessarily want to "brag" about my boys but I am overjoyed at some of their accomplishments recently! So I will share with you! Moose is doing wonderfully at school. We moved him to the afternoon classroom and his teacher said that his behavior problems that they saw in the morning have virtually disappeared. Great! Twice last week (once at school and once at Sunday School) his teachers told me that he shared with someone. What a sigh of relief that one is; sharing is so hard but to know that what I'm implementing at home is working (even the itsy bitsiest bit!) is a relief.  I've noticed that baby toys are most enjoyed by the older crowd. Moose is also reading! I got the sight word list that kindergarteners start off with from his teacher - he read them all for me this morning. I bought a Chuggington book for him on their last book order - he read it by himself after only having it read

Greater (movie review)

-
Image
Sports movies are some of my favorite ones; even better if they are underdog stories! "Greater" is just that - a true underdog story about Brandon Bulsworth who could be called the greatest walk-on in the history of college football. The movie follows Bulsworth from the time he's a kid. His mother is raising he and his brother (who is quite a bit older; old enough to be mistaken for his dad, laughably). His brother gives him a kick in the pants when Brandon claims he wants to play for the Arkansas Razorbacks. Brandon was a heavy kid so no one really thought it would happen. However, Brandon worked as hard as he could and made it. Walked on the team and caught the attention of his coach who put some amazing work into this kid to help him become better. I love when coaches look at the heart of a player more than ability. This really is an amazing story, an amazing movie - full of inspiration and encouragement. Things that seem impossible become possible. The rea

We Choose Virtues (review & giveaway!)

-

I almost think I needed this Kids Kit from We Choose Virtues almost as much as my sons. I mean, check out this list: patience, kindness, obedience, diligence, forgiving, attentive, etc. I have such problems with patience and attentive (anyone else get distracted by stuff online?)! So I know that it's important to teach these virtues to my children, too (and learn alongside them). Jesus was patient, forgiving, obedient, diligent, forgiving, attentive, self-controlled, content, etc. We are supposed to imitate Jesus and so I thought this was a good way to help me teach them how to do that. image from the WCV website Like I said, I reviewed the Kids Kit. It came with a Kids Virtue Poster (that tells all of the virtues & sayings that go along with them), one Fan Poster (your choice; a large poster that shows one virtue and saying), Virtues Clues & a clear acrylic card holder (business card sized cards with one virtue per card), "I'm a Virtue Kid" button, The
