{caleb 9 years old}

I'm way behind in my journaling/blogging.

i couldn't go on with out talking about my first born. he is cute, fun, loving, kind and so creative.

this was his first birthday that he wanted to do everything, or at least plan it and give me detailed instructions.....

on where the decorations should go

what his cake should look like (he drew me a picture and gave me little tips along the way)

and what he wanted to give his little friends for their thank you gift. (he even decorated the bags him self.)

he even kindly requested i take down all my "girly" valentines decor for the party.

the party was great fun and i realized my nine year old is sooo normal, or at least all the kids he invited are just as silly, gross, and goofy as my little boy.

i received some strange comments for this particular birthday.....one made me want to cry...."hey your half way to sending him to college!" ugg.. gasp... whine, WHAT? not my baby, i made him promise he would never leave home, he agreed but i know a signed contract wont hold up in court in 9 years. DARN.

i love this little man he is such a blessing......HAPPY BIRTHDAY CALEB I LOVE YOU!
