3. To play nicely with William, my neighbor next door.

Cy, I think you already are like nobody else. You are so unique and fill our home with joy.
The other day, Cy got to go to a Jazz game with his dad and uncle and grandpa. When I asked him if he wanted to go, he said, "Oh yeah! I love to play basketball." When I let him know that he would just be WATCHING basketball, he responded, "Well, I'll bring my little basketball just in case they need another player."
The world is wide open. He was absolutely bored through 3/4 of the game, I hear.
We especially love Cy's enormous heart. He has hated to pray since he was little, but in the last year, he figured out that he could pray for other people. It all started with my aunt Diane. He began to pray for her, and his prayers have gotten longer ever since. Now we pray for the people in Haiti, in Chile, and the people that the rock fell on in their cars.
This morning, we were explaining to the kids the beauty of the resurrection. I was rejoicing that we would all receive perfect bodies in the next life because of what Christ did for us. I told him that his uncle Steve, who has cerebral palsy, and can't speak very well, will have a perfect body. He said, without hesitation,
"But I like him just the way he is!"

We're sure lucky to have you in our family. We love you!
