"By myself" is a phrase you here a lot from this boy, and mostly I think it is great. I don't remember Ali and Logan being able to dress themselves totally independently before they were three, but Eli does. It often results in backwards pants, shirts, and underwear but he doesn't care and so neither do I. But sometimes, things get really twisted and mixed up, like on Sunday with his button down shirt, and when I offer to help as he gets frustrated he still screams, "BY MYSELF!" I had to wrestle this shirt off him before I could help him put it on right, even after letting him try (and cry) about it for five minutes. How did I get such a stubborn one?

This really looks as sad and pathetic as he was...but you really needed to hear the sound track to get the "whole" picture. I am glad I was there so I didn't miss it.
I decided that the Lord saved some very 'strong willed' spirits to come during our days so that they would have the strength of will to reject Satan's paths. Can be a challenge to parents tho. I did meet a 'weak willed' kid once in scouts and I was petrified. He would do what ever any of his friends proposed without resistance. Soooo count your blessings and have fun.
