Dislikes:"cats, shots, bad dreams, basketball"

What he is saying: he is more mature and responsible in his speech and thinking daily (and we are continuing to work on Spanish- 1 month of classes with mommy teaching lately)

What gets said about BJ most often: how well mannered he is, how responsible and kind he is, how much he looks like Daddy

Fears: "nothing" (not sure I believe it)

Health: only allergy left is peanuts, he got glasses this school year due to discovery that he is farsighted in his left eye 

What he wants to be when he grows up: "engineer"

How he's like Daddy:he likes Mommy, has a mischievous grin at times, loves to "drive the car", wants to do EVERYTHING Daddy does, social
How he's like Mommy: his coloring, his hugs, love of cuddling, short fuse for frustration, his kind heart with smaller kids

Funny things he's done lately: he makes me laugh daily, he has an infectious giggle, the other night Anika and BJ wanted to sleep in the same bed at night and they couldn't stop laughing about Daddy's instructions

Sweet things lately;  he and Anika are rapidly becoming such great friends, they play well together, taking turns playing what the other wants to play 2. BJ loves to make notes and books about how much he loves Dady and and I- so sweet
