Benny, my little man is such a lover. He is always quick with a hug and kiss for anyone and anything. In fact, he just hugged and kissed his juice and his bike while I was writing this. Benjamin can be irritable and stubborn in one moment and hugging you in the next. His personality is magnetic, he gets more waves and "aww, he's so cute" from cashiers and strangers than any kid I know. He is gentle and sweet, yet rough and tumble at times too.
Boys are so different from girls and I am daily confused by him, by his moods, his desires, his wants. He can eat 4 packs of fruit snacks in a row and still want more. He loves Coke and declares himself a "Daddy's boy." He is literally a snacking machine. He can eat a meal and still want to walk around with a bag of cereal to munch on. I found or should I say heard him once after we moved him to a toddler bed at 2 o'clock in the morning sitting in the playroom with a bag of cereal eating. He loves to play hide and seek, but hides int he same place every time. He is scared of the dark, and currently his room too. He will sleep through the night only if he is in Mommy and Daddy's bed. He loves his sissy, but also loves to irritate the dickens out of her any chance he gets.
When I think about his future, I know that God has something great for him and I pray God's favor and blessing on his life. That he give him a sweet spirit of compassion for others and an abundance of giftings that he uses to glorify God. That he surround him with Godly friends and build within him integrity and strength. That he bless him with intelligence and the ability to be an influence in his generation. I thank God for this little boy that has stolen my heart, my little man, no matter how old he is.
