You Three Suck - Just Kidding!

Hey Boys!
Man, so much to say and so little time to say it. I've been working through about 3 blogs in my mind of things I want to tell you about. There's too much to say!!! I think today I'm going to tell you each something funny or special about you before I'm too old to remember, I'll be 33 next month.
Lincoln - You are such a wonderful creation! I am entertained just watching you breath but when you open your mouth I am never prepared for what's about to come out! Just a week or so ago I was talking to your mom in the kitchen about something. Abel was just playing at my feet. You were intent on getting my attention, 'Ninny, how much for Abel?" I just kept repeating, 'He's not for sale!' but you kept asking while I was still trying to talk to your mom. Finally I said, 'A billion dollars then.' To which you responded, 'No, that's too much. Here's a penny.' So I took the penny, not sure why you were so insistent on buying Abel. Once I took that penny from you, you took Abel by the hand and led him away. Ha ha ha, your mom and I just lost it. I still don't know why you bought Abel from me and I don't know why I just took a penny for him. I half expect you to call me up and demand me to bring him back to give him to you. I have no idea what's in store for you but I do know that you have been made so incredibly funny and intuitive and with loads of rhythm therefore it must be something amazing.
Abel - You, you, you! I love having you around. I know that God has already packaged up a lot of special things in you and every day I see more and more! I can already see you are one passionate little guy. I see your intelligence when I ask for something and you go and get it like you're a big kid! I can see your sense of humor as you laugh with me over the silliest things. I can see your temper when you yell at me because I'm not understanding what you want. I can see your independence as you entertain yourself happily. Sometimes I'll try to play with you and you will turn and yell at me and shut your door. But then you always open it a few minutes later with a big grin on your face ready for me to read to you. What scares me the most and makes me the most proud is your courage. You will climb on anything and run anywhere. Right now you love to stand at the top of the plastic slide, no hands, and smile at me like you are about to jump out of an airplane. I can see in your eyes that you are not afraid of anything! I'm already cringing at the thought of the broken bones I'm going to have to face with you. God most certainly has a major adventure in store for you and I am anxious and excited to be a part of that adventure at least for the time I will be a part of it.
Kobe - the grown-up, video-game-loving, intelligent and sensitive wonder! You are a marvel, great at everything you do! I used to let you win video games sometimes but now I try my hardest to beat you and can't! About a month ago your mom, Uncle Matt and Uncle Nate and I were all sincerely trying to beat you at the Wii and you still kept kicking our butts. Your mom is incredibly competitive and I actually witnessed her getting mad at you because you kept beating all of us. She actually almost cussed you out even. Ha ha, you are so fun to be around. You love the games so much, you live in them. I don't think there's ever a moment you just sit still. You jump around and kick and make video game sounds. You try to pull us all into your video game in your head. I am pretty sure you will be creating them before too long. Your heart is just as big as your smarts though. That's what makes you a wonder. Recently your mom told me you all were listening to song about making an ugly woman your wife. You told her that you and Kallie decided to be girlfriend and boyfriend together. You said you would never MAKE someone be with you. You're six. How do you understand that already? I am so excited to see what you do with life. Just as God has great plans for Lincoln and Abel, yours will be a gift to behold. I get chills just thinking about it!
I thank God every day for the opportunity to know the three of you. I feel humbly blessed to get to pour love on you all. God's plan for my own life is surprising me as I get to love on you all. I hope wherever you are at my age, you will be as blessed as I am! (I also hope you aren't putting me and your mom in nursing homes, but if you are I want the bed by the window.) I love you boys and I always will.
