Today is my baby's 6th birthday! Boy, the time sure does fly! At least when you are looking backwards, when you are in the middle of it...sometimes it takes forever! This year he is going to kindergarten (August birthday and being a boy, we decided to wait a year to send him to school...good thing...Italy was waiting for us!)...the kid is so excited, he can barely stand it.
So, onto the day of birthday...of course, it had it's own drama. As well as having a 6 year old, I have a VERY 2 year old. This morning, trying to get a jump on the things to do today, I baked the cake while the kids were eating breakfast. I set them on the counter to let them cool and went to write a quick e-mail in the living room, while the kids were watching a cartoon. Too late to change the outcome, I realized that my lovely daughter was way TOO quiet. She had found the cake in the kitchen and decided to help herself...
The birthday boy...
His daddy bought him his first bow! He already looks like a pro...
Six things wonderful things about Case:
One: For a boy, he is VERY tall for his age...towering over kids that he will be in kindergarten with...at least he enjoys new clothes!
Two: He is on the verge of learning how to read. He has been teaching himself to sound out the words in his books!
Three: He loves his dog and can usually be found outside having adventures with his best friend.Four: He is a Lego maniac...at least once a day, he can be found hiding away (or keeping his little sister out) and playing with them.
Five: With no, or very little, instruction, he shows an aptitude for all things athletic. He just seems to 'know' how it is done.
Six: He misses his Italian adventures. His favorites included: tunnels, the Metro, the beach, and castles.
Here is to the most wonderful 6 year old.
Have a wonderful day!
Ciao a tutti!
Happy Birthday, Mr. Man! Can hardly believe he is 6 already!
