Hey there! So, how's your day going? Pretty good, I hope.

I'm Declan Bear! I'm a 4-year-old boy who's having an awesome time in this big world. You can call me Declan or Bear. I'll answer to either. Just don't call me dude — that's not my name!

Guess what? I have a little sister named Ruby Maeve, and something super exciting happened recently — I got a new baby brother named Torin Kodiak! I was so happy to welcome him into our family. It's been a real adventure, but I'm a little disappointed he can't do all the things I'd like to do just yet.

When I'm not busy being an awesome big brother, you'll find me collecting rocks. I have this amazing rock collection that keeps growing. Each rock is unique and special to me!

I love watching cool shows like Cocomelon and Go, Dog. Go! Oh, and there's this show called Rescue Riders (which I just refer to as "dragons") that I really enjoy. They're super cool!

Do you know what my absolute favorite thing ever is? Playing outside! Rain (or snow) or shine, I love it all. Soon, it'll be summer, and I can't wait for all the adventures that await me! I enjoy playing soccer and having a blast on the playground. Anything that involves being outside and having fun, count me in! Lately, I've been on a mission to find "squirmy worms" and spiders under rocks. I even collected some worms in my pocket at preschool to show my dad when he picked me up. He was so surprised!

Okay, let me share a secret with you. Sometimes my little sister Ruby can be a bit annoying. Sometimes she accidentally smashes my Magna-tile castles. Other times she'll snatch my Sour Patch Kids if I'm not paying attention. But you know what? I love her so much, deep down. That's what family is all about, right?

Well, that's a sneak peek into my world. I'm Declan Bear, a curious, smart, adventurous, and energetic boy who's always up for some fun. Keep an eye out for me as I continue to explore and make every day an exciting one!
