Our sweet baby boy turned 6 this month. On the weekend we celebrated by going to the zoo. Unfortunately it was the hottest day of the year. We didn't realize all of the animals would be sooooo sleepy in the heat. Oh well, we still had fun.
George requested hamburgers WITH buns, watermelon, and corn on the cob for his bday dinner. For dessert he said he wanted ice cream cones. But, the morning of his bday he woke up and announced that he wanted a cherry cake....the kind of cherries that come in a jar.
I searched the Internet for a recipe and came up with a good one. We made a Maraschino Cherry Cake. We used whipping cream instead of icing. It was very good!
After dinner we took the kids for a neighborhood stroll. The scootered and Cam, Tuba and I walked...or chased them.
My guys are so handsome.
....and one beautiful girl too.
Happy Birthday my baby boy. You are such a smart and inquisitive child. You ask us hard questions. You also tell me really deep things about God and the world. You are a big thinker. You are doing great at TKD....you rock the push-ups. You love to play Legos and to run around the yard and wrestle with your siblings. Although you are way bigger than your Sis you like it when she is Little Mommy for you. Happy Birthday to my super awesome boy!
Man, how fast they are growing - upwards, outwards and inwards. I feel so privileged to be able to watch them step into "the rest of their lives" and I love that you and Cam try to give them each the birthday that person wants and don't just always do "what is easy". Happy Birthday...soon he will be doing the loose tooth thing, too!
