I feel like a broken record, repeating "time flies", "where does the time go?", "where have my babies gone?", but here I am again. Six years! Seriously, where does the time go?? I am in love with my beautiful boy. He's smart and funny and sensitive and creative and adventurous. He's curious and helpful and a good listener, especially compared to his handful of a little sister!
I try really hard to be in the moment and realize these days are awesome and fleeting. I try to relax and enjoy making up a random song every night at bedtime for him and I try to savor the time when he wants me to rest my head on his pillow while he falls asleep. I love the kisses he blows me through the crack in the door at school when I drop him off. I love his insane blue eyes. I love his imagination and his laugh when he is really laughing. So much to love. Happy birthday baby!
Some likes these days: Legos, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, riding his bike, playing games on his Ipod, drawing, hiking and jumping off pretty much anything he can.
Also a bit noteworthy...his first permanent tooth is coming in on the bottom behind his baby teeth, which have yet to loosen up and fall out. I was concerned and a bit freaked out, but Aunt Jen assured me it happens and my child is not a shark!
