Keaton



Keaton is my adorable four-year-old grandson. He lives with his mom, dad, and brother in Salem, Oregon.

Remember how I told you about Keaton's brother Sully and his blue-blue eyes? Well, Keaton has those same gorgeous eyes as well. He is one of those kids who you see on the street and think, "Wow, that kid is really cute!".

There are lots of fun things to tell about Keaton. He likes to match his clothes with what his dad or one of his preschool friends might be wearing. He is a great speller. The last time we went for a visit in Oregon, Keaton spelled many, many words for us. His method is to say the word and spell aloud the letters as he writes them with his finger in the air. Sometimes, with long words, he runs out of "air space" and needs to shift his body over to finish the word! It is really fun to watch this process!

A recent milestone in Keaton's life was a visit from the Tooth Fairy. He proudly traded his first lost tooth (in his special Tooth Fairy pillow) for great loot and money. He tried to listen for the Tooth Fairy while sleeping, but that clever Tooth Fairy slipped in and out of his bedroom undetected!

Keaton is starting his second year of preschool. He will be five years old on December 16th, the same day that his cousin Bryce also has a birthday. In October, Keaton will come to Utah to see his cousins. He loves to play with all his "Moore" cousins.
