Prince Josiah

That's what we call him since he's named after King Josiah in the Bible. King Josiah was a prince at one time. :) I always wonder if my boys are anything like their namesakes...Isaac son of Abraham, and King Josiah.
Did the Isaac of the Bible ask 5,000 questions a day? Did he tell his mom that he will always want to cuddle with her? Did he make sure that everyone was doing what they were supposed to be doing? Did he love to be with people?
Did King Josiah make people laugh without even knowing he was funny? Did he do things very slowly? Did completely enjoy life? Did he not like to hug? Did his smile melt his mother's heart?

Well, little Prince is sick tonight. He has a cough that is keeping him up. We've tried lots of different things to help him out. Poor guy! He's completely exhausted. But the reason I'm really posting about Josiah, is because I have the quote of the day from him. Here it goes:
Today, he and Isaac were playing with our little neighbor. I guess that they ran out of things to entertain themselves with, so Josiah gave a suggestion. He said, "Do y'all want to watch our plants grow?" Ha! I love my little guy.

I think I need to write down random quotes from the day and post them each week. One day I'll do that. :) But for now, I'm going to go hold Josiah in his bed so that his cough will calm down.

Mom- He gives us many, many laughs.

Tammy- He's getting better, I think. He at least took a nap today (which was the first nap in about a month!)
Oh, and I already have a list. :)

Dawn- He's on his way to royal health!

Kara- I still miss you!
