| Happy Birthday, Dear 6 Year Old!! |
Well, today is the day that my little boy was born 6 years ago, almost to the minute. He was my fourth child and by far the easiest birth. He also turned out to be the easiest baby. I think it was because he had to be.
He is such a beautiful child. He is really laid back and easy going. He is very good at playing independently and is often in his own world (of which he is the superhero). He is the ham of our family and always keeps us laughing. He is very giving and generous. He, like most of my other children, is very small for his age. At his kindergarten graduation at church, he was almost the shortest out of about 20-25 kids. One little girl was littler. He is pretty athletic. He can do a back handspring, but his specialty is running. He is super fast (of course, all superheroes have to be fast). We call him Flash.
He is loved on by his sisters who think he hung the moon. They would do anything for him. He loves Spiderman, but is having a Batman birthday. He is incredibly smart and is already a pretty good reader. A few months ago, I asked him to spell "elephant". I didn't think he would have any idea. He slowly spelled out "e-l-e-f-a-n-t". I told him that was excellent, but there was a letter pair that he didn't know about yet that went together to say "f". He said, "Oh, ph." I said, "Yes, how do you know that?" He said, "Well, I watched Phil of the Future the other day and saw how it was spelled on TV. Phil says "f", but starts with ph." He amazed me. He then proceeded to spell elephant correctly. You can also find him quite often reading his children's dictionary or playing on his Learning Laptop.
The picture above was taken a little over a week ago at kindergarten graduation at church. As they called him to get his certificate, they called him their "little preacher man". Why, you ask? The boy has to wear a suit every Sunday. He will not dress like all of the other boys in khaki shorts and a knit pullover shirt. He has to be in his suit and tie. I have to say he always looks very handsome.
Now you know a little about my precious baby boy. One thing I didn't mention is how much my "baby" wants to be a big brother! His wish is coming true! I think he'll be the best big brother ever! Happy Birthday, Son! |
