Better late then never right?
So hard to believe he's 11 already! He loved his apple tarts and whipped cream cake.
Reading the invitation from Grandma. A night on his own at G&G's house! What an experience :)
A funny card Papa made for him. :) Strangly similar to one Papa's folks gave Papa not too many years ago. Humor, strange or otherwise abnormal, does run in families :)
His very own sling shot. He promptly made a bag for rocks and went out target practicing.
A book from G&G. Hardy boys. His first one. He's also been deep in the Louis L'Amour box this winter.
Happy Birthday J! J loves to read, shoot his new bow and sling shot, and help in the kitchen. He told me just the other day that now he can make all 3 meals in the day, and cookies, just about by himself! (And only just about because he isn't sure of oven temps etc). He's very good with the littler kids, often reading to them or teaching them something. He's amazingly strong and does all my lifting jobs with Papa now. He's working on a origami book right now and has a collection of animals he's made from paper. He also loves to build paper air planes, metal swords and collect things. He also loves to wrestle, either with L on the trampoline or with Papa on the living room floor. His feet are a size bigger then mine and Papa's and he's got about 20lbs to go before he'll outweigh Papa! He loves social studies and science and could do without math (even though he's super good at it) and English :) he loves to make fires in the woodstove and plays some great piano :) He's already decided his next instrument with by a guitar!
Thanks for being such a wonderful son :) We Love you lots!
