Levi Turned Two


I really have let time get by this go around. Levi turned two on March 30, 2009. Geez, he is screaming even now. Anyways, other than the fairly regular screeching over trivial pursuits, he is completely awesome. His name is actually Daniel Levi. His first name came from me of course. Daniel Levi is the sixth child of mine and I am the sixth of my father's. I know what you are thinking....if he choses to name is his sixth child Daniel that one will be Daniel the 666th...BS.... I have heard this sort of retort a few times by now. Either embrace or be angry over the power of numbers, which I do both, but never fear it. Speaking of which, it just so happens that Levi was born when I was 34. Well I was also born when my father was 34. There is a very similar age spread over the last four sibling too. Sister was 8, brother 4, brother 2 when he was born. Almost the same as when I was born. My parents often said I was a very easy child to deal with which is most often the case with Levi. I guess he has some extra spices in the mix.

His mannerisms are funny too. He attempts to cover his face and be embarrassed when being the center of attention turns out to be more than he bargains for. One of the funniest things he does regularly during the last couple months is talking about what all daddy kills... Well, however it is, other than a deer I am not sure he has seen me kill anything beyond a fly. Even the deer was not shot in his sight. Even so, he growls, then says 'Dog kill.... daddy kill' among other things. He snarls his face and raises his hands beside his face with his fingers in attack mode and then relaxes and solemnly declares death, via daddy, on whatever.

If you ever wanted to get some powerful hugs or big wet kisses, they are available on request, so long as he is not in a fit of cataclysmic rage over not being allowed to go out and play with the tornadoes or maybe just over the Wii remotes. Seriously, Levi is incredibly precious and if you know him you must agree. Otherwise you'll have to pry two Daniels off your head. Capiche?
