Jonathan's cuteness

As we were swimming today Jonathan looked up to the sky and pointed, "Look Mommy, mashed potatoes."

Despite my hardships with Jonathan in oh, the past year, I still think he is the cutest kid in the world (Mommy bias, I know)...lately he's been galloping everywhere he goes - on walks, in the grocery store, in and out of the house. He also has to jump over everything. When we take walks he tries to jump over every crack in the sidewalk. He's really cute...

Oh, and now he has a crush...a girl at church named Joy - she's almost 6! She likes him too, but they had their first quarrel when he interrupted her while she was singing. She was really mad. When we were leaving I had him give her a hug, and she accepted. Then later she added very hatefully, "Jonathan -- you messed up my song!" It was funny coming from an otherwise incredibly cute, sweet little girl in a frilly pink dress.

He has been talking about going to church to see Joy all week. I tried to bribe him with it, which, I know...its bad. He is so close to being potty trained but still cant poop in the potty. I told him that if he pooped in the potty today we would go see Joy tonight. We didn't get to see Joy tonight.
