Josh is our first born son. Jake had a lot of things envisioned for him for his future and so far not many of those things have come true. He is a good boy and loving brother most of the time and loves to go to church. He has unwaivering faith and loves the gospel and his heavenly father so that is something to be proud of but father and son are so different. Jake hates to read, Josh loves to read and always has his nose in a book. Jake tends to like sports(aka. motorcylces and fast cars) Josh perfers to walk and has only ridden his bike when bribed or forced to do so. These two butt heads ALOT. Sometimes I wonder if it is my fault cause I am the one home all the time and somehow broke Jake's son. But then I have to remind myself that Josh isn't broken, he just has his own spirit and personality.It is painful to watch them try and do the dishes together.Josh is getting older and has really expressing his own will power and thoughts. I have been trying to think of something to do so I dont feel like we are always getting after him. So....Josh and I started running a few weeks ago. It has been kinda fun. At first I had to talk him into going and he would complain .... "we have to walk how far.", "can I play my ds when I get home.... my side hurts..... I gotta pee....... I'm tired etc. etc. Yesterday he came and got me off the couch all dressed and ready to go. Come on Mom let's go. It has been so fun having this one on one time with Josh. Even though I have to listen to endlessly about Pokemon and Mario during the our walking periods. (did you know that mario and luigi are plumbers from Brooklyn) I didn't.
