Marek has been a pointer, pointer finger hyper extended and longer than a railroad track, for about 6 months now! He uses his pointy finger to direct us, show us, investigate other children (their eyes at times), and a myriad of other activities. I love it! It is just the cutest thing ever! In May, we did a Mother’s Day photo session for Ganmommie and in one of our family photos (above), Marek’s pointy finger extended straight up to Jesus. Dustin determined that it was Marek’s way of giving God props for the great gift of family. I think that he is so right in that assessment!

Using sign language has
been a strength of Marek’s since Jan. (right after he turned 1). He only uses 3
signs, but he uses them well. Those
three are:

All Done
For
several months now, each time everyone is seated at the table for a meal, Marek
claps his hands to initiate our prayer time. SWEETNESS! He remains in his
“prayer position” until the prayer is over (most of the time). He also helps us
end the prayer with, “Amen!” This is so precious to me. I pray that he will
have an ever increasing desire to talk to his Heavenly Father!
Baby
Biter!
We never
had to deal with the biting issue with Hollis unless it was someone biting him.
He just didn’t have that tendency. However, our youngest definitely has the
tendency to show frustration or get revenge by biting. So far, thank the Lord,
he has done it with family only. Usually, it is his method of revenge with
Hollis when they are wrestling and Marek has enough of his very big brother.
However, there have been other times when he gets mad at either Dustin or
myself and comes at us with mouth wide open!!! WHAT?! We are praying that this habit does not
extend to the outside world! That would be a mess! Due to this, he has learned what time out is!
Sleeper!
