Turning 7

Josh is 7, and relishing every single moment of it.  There is something magical about 7 so far and watching Josh really come into being a wonderful role model, big brother, and friend to Carter and others.  He is quite intuitive, asks great questions, and has really enjoyed reading the Bible and discussing the stories.  It has been an absolute joy to watch as a parent.

The week of Josh's birthday was tons of fun!  Treasuring each day leading up to February 21st and even some days after.  Some of the fun included: bringing brownies to share with his class, receiving a surprise Chik Fil A chocolate milkshake for lunch, cinnamon rolls for birthday breakfast,  waking up to a streamer and  balloon filled room, a birthday party w/ our framily, The Layels, and a birthday party with some 1st grade friends.

Love you so much, Joshua!  Your father and I are so proud of you.
