Elliot is such a sweet little boy and I love the way that he falls asleep in the funniest places!! He used to do this much more often back when he took naps on a regular basis. This got me thinking about all of the little things I love about Elliot. Here is a little list:I love the way he eats his pizza crust first.
I love the way that he plays with my hair whenever he is near me.
I love the way he hugs me and says, "I'm so sorry honey mommy".
I love the way he goes out in the back yard and lays on Max, hugging him for a half hour at a time.
I love it when you ask him what color something is and he answers with the spanish word for the color.
I love the way he gathers things up and lines them up, sometimes by color or shape. Here are two examples just from today.
His favorite cartoon is "Super Why" on PBS kids, I love it that he calls it "Super Want".
His favorite cartoon is "Super Why" on PBS kids, I love it that he calls it "Super Want".I love it that he loves letters and numbers so much. He will sit at the table for an hour writing all his letters and numbers on a piece of paper.
I love it that he writes smiley faces on everything.
I love it that he loves Charlie Brown so much. I love the way he and Grace will still act out scenes from Charlie Brown Christmas.
I love it that he always wants to dress up in Grace's dress up clothes and shoes whenever she is playing with them. (Ray doesn't love this so much!)
I love it that he loves primary songs so much and tries to make requests during singing time in nursery.
I love it when we are in the store and I hear a song I like and tell him to dance, and he does it.
The list could go on and on, but those are just a few reasons why I love Elliot so much!!

I love Elliot because when he sees a picture of leslie without me he asks "WHERE MY ALEX GO?"
I love the way Elliot called me "mommy" the entire week we stayed with him and Grace while Becky and Ray were exploring Spokane. Alex was Alex, but I was "mommy". Even though it wasn't true, there's something so nice about having a little one see you as a "mommy".
I just have to weigh in as well. Elliot is a sweet, kind little boy. He is always affectionate and loving to me whenever I see him. What a great time I had with him and Grace and Maggie. Elliot loves the things he loves with all his heart. i will always love hearing my grandchildren call me, "grandma". one of the high points of life.
I'm piggybacking on some of Becky's loves, because they make my heart so happy. I love when he stacks/organizes things by size or color or whatever, because I'm pretty sure I did those same things (and still catch myself doing it sometimes) and it gives us a connection. And I do love when he plays with my hair. I don't know why that strikes me as such a sweet act, but it really is!
I know this is a family blog but Molly Krisi and I were saying how we love to come blog "stalk" you guys.
For me I have always been drawn to your family. It has been one of the best examples in my life and knowing the Croshaws and the Christensens (Steph's family) made my move so much easier.
Of course I've always loved and looked up to Les but as the years have passed It has been so fun to see everyone grow and progres in life. I love to come to your blog and see Dana...little Dana with her family. Abby and her awesome adventures, Becky and her adorable family, Leslie and her cute hubby, and to see the Mom and Dad Croshaw that let me come visit so much during college.
I just wanted to tell you that your family is amazing. You guys have something special here that not all families have and I love to come peek at how everyone in the Croshaw family is doing....hope you don't mind.
Take Care everyone!
OH and how can I forget cute Grandma and her hugs and kisses! Love her!
Oh that sweet boy. I have to say, his hugs are some of the best ever. They just make you feel all warm and fuzzy!
(Hey Angie!-Molly & Kristi! :)
