Mr. Personality

Last night at church we were about to begin class and since Xander did so well last week going to bible class for the first time, I thought I would give it another try. Last week he slept the entire time and this time he was wide awake but I thought he would like the songs and story time. Anyway, when I dropped him off I told the teacher "Now I will be right upstairs in the adult class if you need me." She said "Oh don't worry we will be just fine." I chuckled to myself and thought 'ya I will see you in a bit.' Sure enough, 20 minutes later, I heard my baby SCREAMING. Now you might think this is normal, but his class was downstairs, and mine was upstairs and on the other side of the building. LOL. I started walking to his class on was met halfway by the teacher's assistant coming to get me. She said "I think he has a stomach ache or something." I said "No, he is just kind of like that." "Oh, all the time?" I looked at her and chuckled. I calmed him down and started to collect our things to head back up stairs. Three adults grabbed me on the way up and I heard various comments like "He was fine and then all of a sudden....He sure does know how to tell you he needs something doesn't he....Wow he is Realllly loud isn't he?" To Cliff and I, he is just our little Xan. But when we get around other people and hear their comments we realize, huh, he is going to have a little personality isn't he. Cliff asked me as we were laying him down for bed what I thought this meant for him as a toddler. I looked at Cliff and said I know exaclty what it will be like. I bent down and picked up Aidan and said to him "Come on Benjamin Jr., it's time for bed."
