Family Spotlight - Steven


STEVEN


Little Steven James was born January 5, 2003. He is the only one out of all the children to be born in California - in fact, in the same hospital as Jon. Always happy and content, Steven can enjoy himself doing almost anything. He's progressed from being a fan of Barney to Thomas the Train, to now being a big BYU and Lakers fan, much to Jon's delight.

Steven enjoys school and is currently the top reader in his first grade class (the picture above shows him holding his very first "chapter" book). He loves to learn and insists he knows how to do everything by himself, which doesn't always go well with trying to help him with his homework.

His favorite color is blue and his favorite thing to do is to go outside and ride his bike, which he learned how to do without training wheels this past summer. When we are inside, his favorite game to play is Lego Star Wars for the Wii, but he also enjoys a good game of Trouble. He is very competitive - definitely an attribute he got from his father. When he grows up, he wants to be an astronaut.

Something you may not know about Steven is that he loves to sing (and sing, and sing). He especially loves to sing to his baby brother Tyler, who he loves so much.

We are so glad that Steven is part of our family. He is a great big brother and is very sensitive to other people's feelings and does not like it when others are upset. We love him so much.

Next time you all come out to Ridgecrest, he'll have to come play Lego Star Wars with Daniel!
