How we see life

This is Asher's position he decides to take when our black lab is in the kitchen when Asher is eating. If it's not the counter it's the table. And it is not because he is afraid of Buckeye (our dog) but he is defending his food and trying to eat in peace. See Buckeye would put her head in Asher's lap waiting for the food to drop.

Asher has such a interesting point of view with life. It's refreshing. Instead of whining about the dog - he problem sloves. He also enjoys seeing the world in a different way. He explores all of his surroundings with all of his senses. While watching the movie "Facing the Giants" he runs around being tackled and tackling. He often greets people with a nudge instead of a hug. He loves to taste all kinds of this that he shouldn't. And, he sing to a song on the radio while being fully engaged in a movie all at loud volumes. He can be easily distracted in a world of order, silence and direction. I'm wondering what school will bring for such a quizitive little guy. Will he be able to listen to directions, sit still in his seat and even walk in a straight line without talking to his friends? Only time will tell.

I enjoy your thoughts. What a great kid. Do you remember you told me that God gives us the kids that grow us the most. I love the way you get to grow.
