Eight years ago yesterday I became a mom…
It is amazing how my life and how my outlook on life and parenting have changed in those eight years.
It is amazing to see how much my eight year old has grown in those eight years…
Yesterday was the birthday boy’s day.
We went out for breakfast, something he loves to do, and then went out shopping for gifts.
He chose a three-headed dragon puppet, a Star Wars figurine, a Wii game and the two next “Bone” books (he has read the first three)…
Going out shopping has proven to be the best way to get exactly what they want and we actually end up spending less than if we shopped ourselves…
then we came home for Pizza and Cake…
It was just a great family day and a “very good birthday” (according to Mr. X himself)
I just can’t believe that he is already 8!
Happy B-day to your Mr X! The days might be long, but the years are short. The years really do fly by! Enjoy! My oldest turned 8 back in April.
Wow, eight!! I keep thinking of the chubby little face of one year-old I first met! It is amazing to watch them grow 🙂 Happy birthday X!
