Prince Story

One of the reasons I started this blog was to remember some fun and/or funny things the kids have done. Here is a Prince story....

The Prince was pretty little when the Knight was born. They are only 19 months apart. In the first hazy, sleepless months after the Knight was born, the Prince started doing something that I wish I could have gotten on video tape. He would run as fast as his little, stubby 1 1/2 year old legs would take him and then slide to a stop, as if he were sliding into home plate in a baseball game. While still on the floor, he would look up at me with those sweet, expressive, baby-blue eyes and yell at the top of his voice, "I 'topped!". He kind of growled his way through saying the "I" and leaving off the "s" in stopped was so darling that, to this day, it still brings tears to my eyes!

The Prince is a great kid and a great big brother! He is kind of squashed in between the Princess and the Knight so we are brainstorming some fun things for him and DadOf3 to do together! Any suggestions?
