Sam-o and the Brothers


These two are alike in a lot of ways.  So many things about the way Sam looks and acts remind me of Henry at this age.  He loves cars and books and singing.  He is a pure delight, how he walks around the house singing, all day long.  I remember Henry being so similar.  I love how this picture shows Henry and Sam, both surrounded and captivated by books.  I think I might have a picture of Henry surrounded by books for every year of his life -- he has always been like this and probably always will be.  It will be fun to see if Sam continues with a thirst for books like Henry has.

I won't say Sam is unlike Ellis, because he does share a few of Ellis' interests.  Sam loves to mimic whatever Ellis is doing - performing "on stage," running around screaming like a crazy man, or reciting the presidents.  Because of Ellis, Sam has learned most of the U.S. presidents' names, and he loves them about as much as he loves cars!  He was pretty excited about opening this Christmas gift from Grandma Whitesides:

"Lincoln!"

He looks so big! How fun for them to ram around with each other.
