I took my little boy to Power Kids (Sunday church for little kids) today. You have to be 3 in order to attend. I remember, when Bryson was a little baby, reading about Power Kids and seeing all of the kids' faces light up after communion when it was time for them to go to their own special little kid church. I remember thinking "He will love that one day!"...I also remember thinking that three years seemed so far away. And today, he went to Power Kids. (tear!) The last 3 years have gone by so fast! Do you moms ever sit on the bed next to your baby as he/she sleeps at night and just stare at them? I catch myself doing that a lot with Bryson. I sit there next to him, stare, and think "he will never be this small again". I examine every part of his cute little face and try to burn those images in my head. It's kind of sad how fast they grow! I am very blessed and thankful that he is healthy and growing into a little boy...I wouldn't have it any other way. I just wish that I could freeze time or slow it down just a little bit!
This morning as we were getting ready for church, he told me "No more spankings for me. It's impossible". I started laughing and thought "Did he just say 'impossible'?". I asked him to repeat himself and he said "Don't spank me anymore. It's impossible". I told him that I hope it's impossible to spank him ever again. I said "all you need to do is be nice and be good and you won't get any spankings". He said "OK". We'll see how it goes! :) Don't get me wrong, he doesn't get spankings on a daily basis...but he usually gets a couple each week. I guess he isn't a fan of them very much...and apparently, it's impossible now to spank him. :)

That is funny..marissa is talking of course not completly clear sometimes but some of the words she has said amaze me.
can't wait for her to go to wigglers worship at legacy. Not trying to make her grow up fast though.
Yes, It is hard knowing your baby isn't a baby anymore. Try them being almost as tall as you are. And yes, I know that's not hard to accomplish, but...
As for the spankings, tell him he aught to be glad his name isn't Katie Bramlett. I will have to say she at least got , oh 3 spankings a day. She has gotten so, so much better. But oh the days, that started when she was 2 and ended it, oh let's see, about 2 months ago. Something changed in her when she hit 5. My babies are 8, 5 & 1 1/2. And Adam says he wants no more babies. tear!! WE'll see. Enjoy that growing boy. He's pretty precious.
Tracy - I am so glad you left a comment! I love reading other people's blogs too and it is fun to know who reads mine. Have SO much fun in Maui. That is the only other island I have been to and it is my favorite! Your family is adorable.
I love the built tough at the top of the page!
he's so funny!!! i cannot wait until we join the kid club in 12 days! kara
Can't believe how big he is! I feel the same way... R will be two in less than a week and I just can't believe it. I do that too... stare at her and try to burn every detail in my brain. Man, it just tears me up!
How did he like big kid church??
Love the "no more spankings" story! I hope for both your sakes it is true!!
