2 Corinthians 1:3-4

Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves receive from God.

6 Years Old!!!

Where have these past 6 years gone?  It seems like my baby boy was born just yesterday, but instead, he turned 6 years old yesterday.  I can't believe how fast the years have gone by.  He went from being a tiny, scrawny little thing, to a very tall and adorable 6 year old.  And he is the light of my life.

He has a very distinct personality.  He loves to crawl around the house and get into trouble.  He loves his music too.  He seems to have a pretty good rhythm too as he bounces along to the beat.  He loves to swing and rock in the chair.  He has the funniest facial expressions, which in turn prompts me to make ridiculous faces back at him.  He loves to cuddle and give hugs and kisses, and my favorite time of every day is when he curls up next to me in the recliner and falls asleep.  Yes, he's a lot of work to take care of, but he's worth every minute of it.  Even the sleepless nights are worth it.  We are so blessed to have this little boy in our lives.  He teaches us something new every day.

Yesterday, was also his Kindergarten Graduation day.  Not only can I not believe that he's six, but I can't believe he has completed his first full year of school already.  He made so much progress this year.  It was fun to see the little program that the teachers and kids put on yesterday.  And when all of the kids were singing the song they had practices, he watched them all closely and took in every second of it.  He's made some sweet friends and has captured the hearts of his teachers, just like he has captured our hearts.

This weekend, we are having his birthday party with a few close friends to celebrate his 6 years.  It should be a lot of fun.  It's always a fun day for us.  And it's nice to have the family gather together to celebrate.

So let me just say, Happy Birthday Sweet Boy!!!  Mommy and Daddy are so proud of how far you have come and we look forward to the years ahead just to see what God has in store for you.

Here are a few pictures from his last 6 years.


This picture show how tiny he was.
