The day began with us celebrating Father's Day for Jhonny. Gavin was a little jealous that it wasn't all about him right then. I assured him his time was coming. At church, he got recognized for his birthday with a card to redeem in the Bishop's office. He was allowed to choose a boy toy and one piece of candy. He was so excited and said, "I never knew you had a bag of toys! Thank you!" He proudly showed off the set of cars he chose. For dinner he got a "special plate." He had to wait for Jhonny and I to get a nap before we had cake and ice cream and opened the first of his gifts. Tomorrow we plan to celebrate at his Montessori school and on Saturday he is getting a HORSE party!! Woohoo! I'm excited for him to get an opportunity to ride a horse. I'm afraid I can't afford to buy him one, but this is the next best thing.
Two nights ago, Gavin prayed that he and Lily wouldn't fight anymore. At the time, Lily was letting him sleep with her in her bed. Lily was a little offended by his prayer. I thought it was nice that he didn't want to fight anymore and prayed for help. The next day, he was having apples for a snack. Lily asked for one. At first he didn't want to share, but after a moment he jumped up and took one of the cut up pieces to her. When I asked why he replied, "Well she let me sleep in her bed last night. I can be nice to her." What a thoughtful little boy. He has really gone out of his way to be nice to his sister.
