"My name is Derrick"

It never fails, Derrick constantly introduces himself to EVERYONE. Sara always calls him a play by play boy because he tells you as it comes. There is nothing but bluntness and that is the sweet part. He goes from telling people "That's my Dad" to "Samantha, you looks so pretty" and "I love you Mom" to "KayDee's our peanut".

Derrick rides his bike without training wheels (a new development since May). He also makes sure we know which trucks are getting dirty when we go off-roading. When the rodeo was going, Sara couldn't figure out why he was talking about all the cows on the radio. Finally she figured it out and asked if he was talking about the rodeo and Derrick gave a shy grin and said yes. He is very good with his bow and has broken his arrows from being used so much. Sara had to take away the pencils he found to replace them.
