Forgotten Videos

Here are just some random videos from May...


The many faces of Lincoln (this was actually a while ago... maybe March?).




A few weeks ago Logan was asked to share a scripture in Primary for the first time. We picked one out that had to do with the Restoration of the Gospel - James 1:5 - and Logan was able to memorize it.

To help him learn it we drew a picture of what the scripture meant and practiced it over and over, every day for a week and a half. We even went over to the church and he got to practice walking up to the pulpit reverently, looking the audience in the eyes, talking into the mic without laughing and sitting down reverently. He loved it and felt so big!

He did so well that Sunday, doing it just like he practiced. He didn't even need his blue "cheat sheet" to look at. It was priceless to watch. It was so sweet and you could tell he was so proud of himself.

This was the first day he practiced... and don't worry, by the time Sunday rolled around he was saying "lack" instead of "black" :-)




Passing out is something Lincoln does often. Logan did it for a short period of time when he was about 18 months or 2 years old, but Lincoln has done it from a very young age.

When he gets hurt or mad enough he'll cry so hard and has a hard time catching his breath and stops breathing and then eventually passes out. Since this is so much a part of what Lincoln does I wanted to capture it to remember what it was like. At this time, he would pass out about 2 times a week. He might only pass out about once every other week now. Poor guy.

(And, no, we didn't provoke this one just to make it happen. We just happened to be near our camera when the episode started).




One day Logan came home from church and while I was making lunch (the usual Sunday afternoon mac 'n cheese) he was busy crafting something in the living room. First he came and got the scissors and from the living room I heard mumbles about cutting a string. Then he got the tape out. I didn't realize what he was doing until he brought me his very own "kite" made from the string of a deflated balloon and a piece of paper he had colored on earlier.

I couldn't not let him "fly" his own kite on such a windy day, and this is what it looked like. He loved it. Inventive little boy.
