My Kids

I want to start writing about each one.  Then his never  of my kids each week.  I was going to write about Kristiana tonight since she is my only little princess.  BUT I caught Allen playing Barbies with Kristiana tonight and thought I need to start with my oldest that is my big helper.
Allen was just about 2 when I met Tony.  Allen was my little Pikachu "My pocket monster".  He has always been the out going, funny man of the group.   
He loves his little sister and brothers with all his heart and he has a big heart.  He loves everyone and everything his heart is open to everything.  He really enjoys Boy Scouts and doing the whole outdoors thing.  I found him out side trying to start a fire with a magnifying glass and sticks.  He did every step his leader taught him and he was almost there.  There was smoke but no fire, he tried for over an hour. 
He is the only one who will play "girlie" things with his sister.  e has no problems playing Barbies, House or Kitchen with her. 
He will probably get really mad at me for posting this.  ;0)
I am very proud of him.    Last year he had straight A's in school this year it has gotten a little harder for him but he is going to get through it just fine. 
He tells me all the time he is going to live with us until he is 30.  He even told me he wants to go to college in St. Louis so he never has to leave us.  ;0)  I told him the only college out here by us is Jefferson College.  He's response was what about mama's are there any by her?  I said nope bud there isn't.  Then his next response was what about Aunt Lulu's (Gaby, Tony's sister)?  I said yep there sure are some out in the city by her. He said OK, I'll live there trough out college and then when I graduate I will move back home with you and dad.  I just laughed!!!  This is coming from a boy who wanted to either be a Rock Star or a Mail Man. 
Tonight he was playnig barbies with Kristiana because I was cleaning the kitchen from dinner and Nana wanted to play barbies with me.  I told her I couldn't so she went to her dad and asked him.  Of course he wasn't feeling it so I said can someone please play with her.  Allen was the first one to say I will come on Nana and he was in the room before she was.  She gets so excited when they come home from school because she knows Allen will play with her and do what she wants him to.
