Yesterday was Daniel's fifth birthday. It is sooo hard to believe! His arrival marked the greatest change of my life, as well as Matt's. Things have been wonderfully challenging, and I know that God has the most amazing plan for his little life. My prayer is that we can be the parents he needs to guide him down the right path. He is a terrific big brother to Caroline. I am so thankful for my family.
At five he can:
count as high as you will let him!
identify numbers through 100
tell you his full name, address, and phone number
add in his head!
use robust vocabulary correctly
identify all letters of the alphabet--upper and lower case
tell you all of the sounds of the letters
read! (Dick and Jane and Dr. Suess)
lead the blessing
make his sister smile like no other
hop on one foot
do a sumersault
do the triangle at the park--back and forth!
bless our day...
LOVE that little guy!
We are in Brewton right now. Last night we celebrated his birthday with some mini cupcakes here, and we will have his party next weekend. We are excited to see many of our friends and family members there. It is going to be a blowout--the party to attend...just ask him! ;)
Caroline got sick on the way to Brewton yesterday, so she and Matt are home. Daniel and I are headed to Pensacola today for a family reunion of sorts. Then, we are headed back to Birmingham after lunch tomorrow.
I can't believe Spring Break is almost over. Seems like it was just beginning yesterday...
Oh, well. Maybe the next two months will go by as quickly as March. This weather is amazing, and they days are brighter and happier. Have a wonderful spring, everyone!
