Meet Action Boy

Here is my second born son. I called him Action Boy because he loves anything that involves action. Whether it is him being active himself outside with sticks for swords or playing action computer games;)

Ever since he was born 22 months after his big brother, Action Boy has been a sweet little addition to our famly. He has a very sensitive soul. He is very compassionate and generous...and also very tough. I remember praying over him as a toddler because somehow my mother's heart knew he would be sensitive on the inside...but tough on the outside. Recently we had a conversation about some things and I told him he was sensitive. He was quiet for a couple seconds and then said, "It's not the kind of sensitive that means I'm not tough is it?" (those of you that know him can picture this response perfectly;)

As a little guy he was always the one to give in if there was a fight over a toy or what game to play. When asked why he didn't stand up for what he wanted he would say, " I just want 'so-&-so' to be happy"

But; he was also the one to football tackle adult men (at a not so convenient height) because he thought he was invincible. In fact for the longest time he would tell us that when he grew up he was going to be batman. He wanted to be the one to fight the bad guys and save people.

I think that still holds true today, although he doesn't want to be batman anymore. I believe his desire is to stand for truth and defend the weak...and have as much fun doing it as he can!
