Drew Finished His Santa Letter Today!

This is a photo of Drew, Christmas '07 with Legos and a candy necklace... really, what more could you want?

Drew- "It took me two days to finish it. I'm gonna send it today. I hope Santa will bring me the things on the list: a stuffed horse, a stuffed dog, a food set... what was the other one? Mom, do you remember what the other one was?... oh, and a box of crayons. That's it."

So Drew is notoriously early with his Santa letters, and there may be a revision but more likely than not Drew will remember exactly what's on this list from now until Christmas eve.

Pray for Drew 001

Drew is at that great age where he's is totally in love with Christmas. He's all about presents, and even though he would probably say, 'No,' if you asked him if Santa was real he still puts out cookies and milk with the truest of expectations. Drew is a believer. I think that's a word that describes both his spirit and his personality. He's a believer.
We have always seen Drew as tender-hearted though he constantly surprises us with his independence and self-assuredness. He will have to make the most dramatic transition of all of us as we move to France. Right now he can read, he can ask the waiter for salt, he can interact with kids at the playground, but as soon as we move to France he's back to square one. He is very aware of all this, and he says he's up for the challenge.

Pray that Drew would continue to enjoy his school and stay focused on it though so much is changing around him.

Pray the Drew would be able to begin to assimilate French as we practice it at home.

And pray that Drew would be surrounded by godly men that would be examples for him and instruct him in obedience to God.
