Jayden With Child-like Bravado

When Jayden first came around at age 3, he couldn't say his name.  He'd make a fist, thump his chest lightly and say, "Abate!"  Ever since then his uncle calls him Abate, and that explains the photo above.


Made a sling-shot with Jayden, after walking around barn lot looking for other stuff
...John said, "Look, there's a robin.  Don't be shooting a robin.  God made him."
...Quick witted Jayden said, "For me to EAT!"  and we all laughed.


Here's Sunday

Got Jayden up
Fixed him eggs and sausages and he said, "Why am I eating a baby bird!"  and giggled
Packed him snacks for church, "You want 2 or 3 graham crackers?"  
...I want 10
...No, you want 2?  or I can add more?
...He looks at his hands under the table, I can see the brain synopsis firing, and he comes up with, "7 more, please."  
...He's doing math on me, the little scamp!!!
