At least according to this young man.He was so excited to be turning eight.
I hope the big day didn't disappoint.
Of course what he is most excited about is
the big BAPTISM which is just 12 days away.
And of course it is official,
now that he is eight,
he finally gets to go to Pack Meeting as a cub scout,
in a real cubs scout uniform.
Here are EIGHT great things about this boy I love.
ONE - You are a water boy.
You have always loved to play in the water
and still do. Exhibit photo number one.
TWO - You are a competitive boy
especially when it comes to your brothers,
always trying to keep up with them and trying to out do them.
THREE - You have natural athletic ability
and have been playing soccer since before you were three.
You strive to do your very best in your games
but thrive on playing as a team.
FOUR - You are the only one of our children
that was born in a different state.
To me you will always be my little California Boy.
FIVE - You have never been into toys that much
but you are are good game player.
Whether it be a board game, video game or sporting game,
it is in your nature.
SIX - You are a thinker. You are great at school
and an AWESOME reader.
SEVEN - You are a helpful BIG brother,
to not only Miss M your sister who you adore,
but also to your only younger brother
who looks up to you.
EIGHT - You love to share. It is easy for you to think of others.
You sometimes will get a certain treat
knowing that you will be able to share it with your siblings.
I am so proud of the boy that you are
and happy that you are part of this family.
I LOVE you my blue-eyed, blond California Boy.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY
