Master Piano Player

My bookworm is suddenly becoming an iceprincess, sweet singer, and master piano player!

I thought her brilliance couldn't get any better, but it is and esspecially as she has learned entire years worth of piano lessons in only months, because she grasps so quickly, that which she wants to understand.

The Only Dolls Will Played With In His Life

The only doll that Will would ever be caught dead playing with, would be his own personal set of nutcrackers. They are his favorite Christmas decoration and he likes to have them in his room each year!

Fun with the Mcneill Family

Carving Pumpkins

Pumpkins

My favorite thing about taking the kids to the Pumpkin Patch each year, is telling them that They can choose which ever pumpkin that they can carry.

Will's Creativity

 Will actually does own many pretend armor and swords, but making his own custom cardboard design still seems like fun to him and I am glad he is creative. Daddy did say Will owes him a new roll of gorilla tape now.😉😁

Growing Pains

Well Will has been having a problem with growing up lately, and if you did not see him in his little seven-year old tooshie , you might think that he was going through empty nest syndrome.

Will was crying real tears and shrinking into a ball as I lay in bed with him a few nights ago.

I was trying to Comfort him when he said,
" Brooke is just growing up too fast. "

In his own words he said, " In only four years Brooke will be able to drive and I will never see her anymore and she definitly wont want to play in our clubhouse anymore."

I could not calm Will down. I thought, oh my gosh he is right! And, I could not stand seeing him so sad. I asked Brooke to sleep with Will that night.

When Visiting Grandma Turano a couple weeks ago when she asked Will what he wanted to be when he grows up, Will said, " Grandma, Do you think I am old enough to be making descisions like that yet? " Her shock turned into is all laughing.

When sitting together after school doing homework one day, Will said, " As soon as I finish can we walk to Jordan's? " I said, " Sure." When I told Will to put his shoes on he said to me, " You need to change out of your highheels." I said, " Why? I always wear These. He said, " You should not walk so much in those Mommy and what if you need to run? " I said, " Will, I can run in highheels you know?" He said, " No, you cant." I said, " Wanna bet? " and he and I had a race down the hallway laughing.

Last night Will was trying to get out of bed and I said, " Where are you going?"
He said, " Mommy, I forgot that I am expecting a package and if it is outside, I do not want it to stay out there." I said, " You are expecting a package at seven-years old? " This morning Will went straight to the door as he woke up. I guess he is expecting a package?

When I dropped Will's lunch off one day he came home upset. I asked what happened and he said, " I am now the strangest kid in my school." I said, " Why? " He said, " Everyone was asking me why my older sister brought me lunch today and when I told them you were my Mom they didn't believe me and said that you were skipping school. He said, " Mommy, I think you really are a teenager. "

I am sorry Will, you are much too smart for your Adolescent Mother.

And, I am sorry that I still don't know exactly how to answer your question about who created the first thing even before God?

You always tell me that something had to create even the first darkness or light.

Big Boy with a Big Heart

Will was thrilled to be going back to school this week. Will understands that making it through the summer and back to school just means that he is getting bigger and older, like his big sister whom he tells me, " Ask Brooke, she knows everything. "

Will has been teasing his sister a lot and I keep telling her that it is just because he loves her and wants her attention.

I was proven right that Will really learns and follows Brooke often these past few weeks.

When I had been running one day, I came home to find Will ( A babysitter was there bur said she had nothing to do with it ), sitting in the corner, watching Bible videos made by the church, for adults. The language in these videos comes straight from the New Testament, so I was impressed when Will started telling me about each scripture account that he had watched.

Later that day Will said, " Mommy, I really want to help the poor people but I don't know how to? "

Will nudged me to take action on a project that I had might not otherwise figured out how to help with, since I missed the training held which was required.

Will inspired me to take action and we were able to go help some refugees that had just left their homes and I was able to help teach English to some kind Muslims, while Will and Brooke played with their children.

After our meeting with the refugees was over and we were taking them home, we were invited into the home and this sweet lady insisted on cooking and feeding me, although she had hardly anything to her ownership.

To my surprise Will started taking pictures of me at the table she sat me down at and when I got after him for using my phone, he said, " Mommy, I just thought you might want to remember this." He was right because it was special and he helped me experience that special service and Afgan sister of mine.

Today, on the way home from his school as we drove to get Brooke, Will said, " Mommy, I have something that I have to do in my life." Will was very serious and I held back my smile and said, " Really, what is it? "

He said, " I am going to become the President of our country, so that I can help the poor people. You see what I will do is get everyone in every city who votes be people who believe in Jesus, and then when I say we are going to help the poor, they will help me, because they believe in Jesus."

It was the sweetest thought from a seven-year old whom instead of thinking of being a famous Rockstar ir Extreme Bike Rider, or such; was thinking instead about how he could gain power to help the poor!

I am not sure I should share this with his Dad whom is a Libertarian, and thinks government should stay out of these things, haha 😂 but, I think Will has shown his big heart and even if he is getting bigger and he is so proud for that, I am proud of his good ambitions and desires.

I love you my little prince Will! 💝 You would make a very righteous President and maybe, you might be the first one to make Utopia work? Or maybe, you will be the next Enoch that leads a whole city to God? 😉 No matter what you do, you will always follow the prophets and Our Savior, Jesus Christ, that I know....
