Today is my darling son's 7th birthday! He is one of the most kind-hearted, handsome, and lovable children I've ever met, and I'm so proud that he's mine. My husband and I taped streamers over the entrance to his room so that he would have to break out on his birthday morning. I found him sitting in the sandbox this morning, and I asked him how he liked the doorway. "It was really nice mom, but I'm sorry that I accidentally broke the bottom when I was trying to crawl out." I explained that breaking through it was sort of the point and his face lit up. We went inside and he ran through the streamers and yelled, "yay, seven!" I made some chocolate mint cupcakes and we plan on taking the kiddos to the drive-in tonight (one of only 2 drive-ins left in Colorado!) Next weekend we are having a big shin-dig to celebrate three of our children's birthdays, since they are all grouped together in May and June. I only wish that he would have agreed to pose with me, but he's feeling self-conscious that he just lost a tooth. Happy birthday, sweet Emery, we're so lucky to have you in our lives!
