Name: Lucas Edward Martin

Lucas' favorite thing to do is ... be with his sister. When she is gone, he will ask, 'Where did Olivia go?' He is very close to his sister, and I know they will be even closer as they get older.
He laughs when ... you pretend that you are a monster. He will watch "Monsters Inc." as long as you let him. When I walk up to him and tell him "rrrraaaarrr!" he will just bust up laughing.
He gets so mad when ... it is time to come in the house. He wants to play outside as long as he can.
His favorite toy is ... his cars. He will drive them on everything he can. It is so cute how he will make the sound of the car and drive it up your leg. He also loves to get on his mommy's phone so he can watch Mickey Mouse.
He is learning ... how to write his letters. He tries to do homework with his older sister.
Lucas is known for ... making people feel better. When his grandma is in pain, he will walk up to her and ask where the boo boo is. Then he will give it a kiss. He will also pick flowers for his mommy and grandma. When you see his little face and he is smiling, it just melts your heart. He is truly one of the sweetest little boys I know.
