Lucky Number Seven

I cannot imagine where the time has gone.  How is it that this amazing boy has been in our lives for seven years?  So grateful for his daily blessing.



There was a weekend of much celebrating and joy.



Presents and special events.



Family and friends who made the time even sweeter.



And at the end of it all my precious baby boy was another year older and wiser.


{He picked the Mexican restaurant not knowing this was part of the deal.  Now a favorite memory}

He loves all things Legos.  He isn't that into desserts, but loves bacon.  He didn't eat any birthday cake or cupcakes (no worries, I took care of his share). He is reading and writing well, but not of his own volition.  He is far to busy planning, building and making things to be concerned with elementary school work. He is already very watchful of his baby sister, always making sure she is okay and helping to take care of me.  He makes friends wherever we go, but Eli is his true best friend he never wants to be without.

And a funny moment from the end of the birthday party.
