Chip Chip Hooray!

Today our third son is turning seven. Skittles for school in his backpack, he is off! He's grown so much in the last year. He has gone from having video taken of him rolling in the dirt at flag football to being part of the core of the offensive line, from not caring about his letters and numbers to doing his math homework first thing and eagerly reading to me each day, from a shoe size 13 to a size 3. He's a head taller and it is finally starting to rest on his shoulders. I wasn't sure this day would ever come.

He's still full of boundless enthusiasm and huge smiles. He's still very expressive about his views on the world. He's still a "busy" child...but he has learned some self control and tamed his wild edge a little.

Overall he's had a great year. Happy Birthday Buggie.
