It's About Time!

Someone in our house has been impatiently waiting to lose some ivory.

Someone who is 6 years old and thinks that he has waited long enough.

Especially since his younger cousin has lost multiple teeth before him. How dare she;)

 It finally happened.

First a little wiggle.

Then when he couldn't wait any longer he had his older brother pull it out with a pliers.

Yup, he was desperate!

Then after another day or two, he thought the tooth next to that empty space felt a teensy bit loose too. He didn't even wait for it to loosen up more. He had his brother with the trusty pliers there to yank it out.

He looks a little crazy here, and I think he might be if he would let that brother of his near him with a pliers again.

He is always testing out his other teeth now because he "needs" money, he says. That tooth fairy gave him a whole paper dollar for each tooth, and to him that's some easy money!

Happy Birthday to my Brown-Eyed Boy

I can't believe you are 6 today.

But then again, I don't really remember life without you.

You are my third child born in just as many years.

I remember looking at your sweet little face, with the little upturned nose.

Head full of dark black hair.

I loved you immediately.

Love at first sight.

I was so happy to welcome a third son into our family.

You were born with a strong will.

One that has made us bump heads on many things.

I realize now that God made you that way.

He wants you to be able to stand strong in what you believe.

I Love You.

 

 

You love to laugh and to make us all laugh too.

You "live" for Legos, I can't get you to play with anything else.

You and Ethan are the best of friends,always finding some sort of adventure in everything.

You still are my snuggler.

You now have blond hair but still have those piercing brown eyes.

That little nose.

I hope you will always want your Mama's hugs and kisses.

As much as I don't want you to get any bigger,

I can't wait to see what great things are in store for you.

I love you Blake Alexander.

You will always be my little boy.
