Today is my nephew, Issacs birthday, and Truman just adores him. Issac is a little over 2 weeks younger than Truman, but just towers over him in both his height and weight. Truman just thinks the world of Ikey. Any time anyone says a prayer, Truman thinks that is his cue to say his own prayer, which usually sound a little something like this.
Heavenly Father,
Ikey Doh-Doh
Bless Food
Bless Dad
Bless Tucker James (because right now, Truman only calls Tuck by his full name “Tucker James”)
Ikey Doh-Doh
Jesus, Heavenly Father, Amen.
We’ll we pray in the morning, over the food 3 times, then our good night prayers, we hear about Ikey at least about 5 times a day. Usually at some point in the day, Truman will ask, “where Ikey?” or ask if Issac is doing the same thing he is doing, such as, “Ikey Quiet Time?”, “Ikey eat food?”
The Funny thing is, When Ikey and Truey are together, because they are at this age–they don’t really play together, they don’t even really pay much attention to each other, so it is so interesting to me how much he talks and thinks about his cousin. It will be fun to continue to watch these sweet boys grow up together, I am sure over this next year, they will begin to play more and more with each other, and get to know each other better!
Happy Birthday Ikey, you’re the apple of Trumans eye!
