I love this first picture of you even though I didn't take it (I am guessing Sam did), because that is a classic Keaton expression and because this is what you look like almost every day. That is your favorite shirt and day in and day out that is what you will try to wear until I gently remind you that you wore it the day before and to please go change. It has all the stains to prove it too.
Your favorite buddy is still Landon, but you like to wait until mid afternoon before you ask to play, and like to spend your mornings alone on the Xbox, your iPod or on my computer. Although you do come out of your shell around most people, I have noticed that you often leave the group and like to just be alone. To be honest, it worries your Grandma B because she thinks that you feel left out, but I know that is not the case. I love that you are confident by yourself and don't mind being alone at times.
You are still crazy about Birdie and like to call her "Boo-ey" which drives me and your Dad nuts so we try not to listen, but you do take really good care of her, and try to make her sleep on your bed at night. You also love to walk into the room and say "Hello.. chumps." I think you learned it from Landon, but me and your Dad have started saying it to you to get you to smile; however, I think you say it the best.
You did really well this summer in swimming lessons and passed off Level 5. You have already decided to be done with taking lessons, and that is fine with me. You are a great swimmer and I don't think any more lessons are needed unless you choose to do swim team.
I love how you take good care of me, Keek. After my shoulder surgery last month, you and your siblings didn't quite know what the doctor did to my shoulder because I didn't really tell you. One day a week or so after the surgery you asked to see my shoulder underneath the ice packs, sling and bandages and I showed you and the rest of the kids. It is just two little scars, and really didn't look to bad, but I could tell that you felt sorry for me and knew that it hurt. All of sudden you were bringing me my drink, getting me food, asking me if you could do anything else to help you, and this lasted one whole day! I was very touched that you wanted to make me feel better. I know you had been watching what your Dad nurse me with and tried to shadow him. You have a big heart. It meant a lot to see you take the initiative like that. One day when I am very frail and old I hope that you will still want to help take of me.:) I love you, son.
Love,
Mom
