James had a birthday this past week. He turned a whopping seven years old!
The day turned out to be a regular day. James did get sung to by his whole first grade class, which he thought was pretty special. His school buddy, Derek, came over for birthday dinner and cake. The garage was set up with lights and a dance floor, and the kids enjoy dressing up and dancing their socks off.
James is quite the Minecraft enthusiast these days, so he requested this snowy Lego Minecraft set. In keeping with our theme, I attempted a special Minecraft themed cake (thankyou, Pinterest). It's supposed to look like a grass block. He was hilarious as he was blowing out the candles. He ran around the room inhaling as much air as possible, but when he finally got back to the cake, he was entirely out of breath! Seven candles is definitely tricky.
James is creative, smart, thoughtful, and really funny. He loves to be tickled and laughs at all my jokes. He is a budding artist and a great dish doer. Most importantly, I have seen growth in his testimony and intellect over the past year. This will be an exciting year as we prepare him for baptism. We love you James, and are so grateful to have you in our family!
