Micaiah and Boppy

With Micaiah being an 8 year old boy with 3 younger sisters, Mike and my dad have been very purposeful in trying to invest some extra time in him. Micaiah began calling my dad "Boppy" before he was one when he was just learning to talk. Micaiah couldn't say "Grampy" so he called him "Boppy". The name "Boppy" stuck and now continues with all my kids (and the kids at Pathway Bible Church!). Boppy took Micaiah to a civil war reenactment this past weekend. Micaiah really enjoys history, so this was right up his alley. In addition, there were plenty of loud noises, cannons and guns :) - what 8 year old boy wouldn't love that? They both had a great time together. The night before, Micaiah made sure we charged the batteries for his camera (he and Mimi share our old digital camera). These are a few of the photos he took. Micaiah is so blessed to have his grandparents involved in his life.
