Noah gets pretty frustrated with pretty much everything lately giving us a view
of the exciting time we will have during his adolescents. So it wasn't a
surprise this afternoon when I was making cookies and Noah is trying to make a
paper airplane that it turned into an ordeal. He has this book with all of
these different paper airplanes and the directions on how to do each one. We
did a few together and then I got up to make cookies. Noah tried to do it by
himself and was getting really frustrated and close to tears. So I took over
and tried to see his mistake and make the airplane. And you know he picked
probably the hardest airplane in there and the pictures weren't enough of an
explanation. I felt his frustration and wanted to throw the airplane. Which
would have been great if it was done. I think my child has inherited my
patience level. I often remember being frustrated and upset allot of the time
as a kid. Noah also doesn't like to wear jeans and complains about the way his
clothes fit daily. Mom, I'm sure you remember that too and I'm
sorry.
Deacon is getting pretty funny. We had the missionaries over and
he wanted to play rock, paper, scissors with them. A game I didn't know he knew
how to play. Well in Deacon's version scissors always wins because it cuts your
hand. He is also a little bit of a salesman and when he wants you to let him do
something he nods his head and talks positively. Something he may have learned
from me. It's a training technique we use at work and he is very good at it.
Jeremy is doing allot better after his surgery. He is still in pain but
is taking allot less stronger medicine. One of the side effects of
perkestte(spell) is a creapy feeling. Who knew. But it's definitely worth the
pain to not feel like that again. He will be off of work until December 26th,
but is still seeing his clients. It will be nice to actually see each other
this holiday season.
I am enjoying seriving with the Young Women. They
have planned our ward's trunk or treat which will be allot of fun. They are a
small but great group of girls
