Because he can

Oh my little Dare Bear. That boy sure does know how to make me smile! He cracks jokes just to get me laugh and it works. Funny stories? There are quite a few when it comes to him. Like saying that his "fever" (stuffed Beaver that his cousin Ckyrah gave to him) would get up in the middle of the night to take pickles from the pickle jar, Darren being the accomplice. We nipped that one in the bud, let me tell you! So did Darren. He put his fever in the corner for a time out for "making him help eat the stolen pickles" in the middle of the night. He sure is clever! hahaha. And then there was the time that Darren decided that taking a nap just wasn't for him. Layering on the winter clothes that he found buried in a box in his closet was more fun. He had so many long sleeved shirts and sweaters on that I am sure even a BB could penetrate. He is so original! I love that he calls the Halloween lights in our neighborhood Christmas lights. I love that he makes sure Jaycee can climb up the stairs at the park and waits for her at the double slides so they can hold hands and go down together. I love that he flexes his muscles after he eats all his dinner and says "look mom, I am growing muscles just like dad!" I love that he loves to look at himself in the mirror and make funny faces. He cracks himself up like no one can! I love that Darren walks down the hall with Jaycee and give each other a hug and kiss goodnight. I love that Darren has his own fashion sense. He thinks socks with flip flops are pretty cool. I love how he is entertained by books. I love that he has a love for his family. That he is aware that he has tons of people who love him and he gives it right back. I love that when I try to take his picture its difficult to get him to not be silly. I love that he tells me not to worry that he is going to be gone when he goes somewhere with Michael. I love that he says he will miss me too. He helps with laundry. He helps with cooking and baking. He cleans his room and sometimes helps Jaycee with hers too. He loves sports. He loves to get dirty, but loves his baths with lots of bubbles. I love that no matter what, Darren always seems to be happy. I just love the kid, period.
