The Knights: November 2008

Logan has been getting scared at night because his fan will blow things in his room. So we have been teaching him that he can say a prayer and HF will make him feel better and help him to sleep. One morning he told me he had been scared and that he prayed and that HF really made him feel better. The cutest part is, he got out of bed and knelt in the middle of his floor to say the prayer. Then crawled back in bed and fell asleep. I told him he didn't have to get out of bed if he was scared and he said, "yes I do, I have to show HF respect." 05-'10
We were at a park that had the telephone toys. One pipe on one end, and Logan was near the other end. Mikah yelled in the pipe "I love you Logan" he looked around confused because he was all alone and said, "I love you too Heavenly Father, I know that you are true!" then went on playing as if this was a regular occurance. 04-'10
When you lay a blanket on the ground and sit on it he thinks it is called a party. He will always ask me to make a party for him. 09-'10
While talking a mile a minute he stopped and said, "the batteries in my mouth are broken." 3-'10
He told me to take a cat nap, and he would take a dog nap. 3-'10
He calls Mozzarella cheese, Cinderella cheese. 3-'10

While counting to 10...1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,purple,10! 4-'10
While playing kitchen with Daddy he told her to put something in the microwave for 2 minutes, she ran to the couch and buried her face in her hands and began to cry. When he asked her what was wrong she said "time out." (When she is in trouble she has to sit on the stairs for 2 min.) 2-'10
When she wants to be held she will stand at your feet and say "Can I hold you?" 1-'10
If she is mad at you she will flip your lip. 1-'10
When she wants your attention she will yell "Mamma Keith Knight, or Daddy Keith Knight" we all get Logan's full name. 1-'10

Not by any means is she walking or crawling on her own. But she sure is happy to push the little walker around. She is so beautiful and fun.

I can't believe 8 months has already come and gone. Keith told me the other day that he thinks he is ready for another. It really made me think about it. Am I ready? Watching Logan and Dylan together is alot of fun. Thinking about having more so they can play and we can have more family activities sounds exciting, but babies sure are hard. If I could just get another one at 8 months maybe I would be ready. Another one means a bigger car, sharing rooms, getting fat again, more responsibility, and changing the baby to adult ratio. I am scared to be outnumbered. But, it also means more sweet spirits in our home. More love, more being loved, and more fun. Wow...I can't believe I am even thinking about it. My heart starts beating and I get really nervous when I think too hard about it. For now we will just leave it as a thought, but we probably won't leave 2 whole years between Dylan and the next one.

I always think about the scripture that says something like, become as little children so you can enter into the kingdom of God. I couldn't have put perfection into better words. They are so sweet, and innocent. Yet, Logan understands and always has a simple solution to all lifes problems. He genuinely loves and cares, and wants to be loved and cared for. He is always early to bed and early to rise. They love me and always forgive and forget anything that I do wrong. Really though...is there anything else as wonderful as being a parent. It is the hardest, most rewarding thing I have ever done. How can I not want more?

Okay. It is finally up and running. Most of you already know that I have been doing card/design for the past 3 years. It has mostly been a hobby, but something I have wanted to really get into since I received my certificate in Desktop Publishing in 2003. I really want to get into wedding invitations. I like working with people who have an idea of what they want and trying to create whatever it is they see in their head. You can come up with some pretty great stuff. I have been doing all of my design under the name Thgink Design. Yes...I meant to put the "g". It was supposed to be a clever play off of Knight (spelled backwards). It was a fun name but definitely not very marketable. No-one could remember how to spell it, including Keith. So that is when I came up with Sassy Dean. Growing up my parents always called me Sass, actually they still do. And Dylan's middle name is Dean (from my Grandma Carla). Hence the name Sassy Dean. I will be rebuilding the entire Thgink Design website and of course renaming it SassyDean.com. If you look at the Thgink Design website please don't judge me. Most of the designs are at least a year old, and I am constantly learning new things. Upgrading. The new site will be much better, and the new name will hopefully be more memorable. But until I get enough free time to rebuild the site-blogging is going to have to work. The blog is sassydean.blogspot.com. I will be posting some digital scrapbooking kits for all you scrapbookers. So many things to do...so little time. Tell all your friends and family. I have found the most amazing printer back east. They are super fast and their stuff is incredible. The price is pretty good for now, hopefully as I get going on this I will be able to find a printer that is just as good, but closer to home. Hopefully you like what you see, I will be offering a discount to those who talk about it or post a link to it on their blog. I just haven't created the code for the discount yet. It is another thing in the process. Check it out!
