Birthday Ben

Can't believe the little booger is SEVEN!! That's right, SEVEN.

I asked him how it feels to be seven...and he said "the same as being 6, pretty much."

Typical. He's the oddest of my odd ducks--and THAT's saying something! Mom (that would be me!) mucked up on the birthday candles--thought I had plenty!--so he had the numeral 6 and 1 regular candle, LOL. He was cool with that, pretty darned happy, actually...figured no one else he knows would have their SEVEN like that. (Smart, flexible boy!!)

Red is still his favorite color. But he likes Bakugon toys now....this is his expression when he opened them as a gift from his siblings.

Happy birthday, Beastie #4!

Watching you grow is always an adventure--and there are so many more to come. The fun is just beginning!

Award Winning Benster!

Mommy's playing catch-up again...but only a couple of weeks' worth this time! My Ben-ster received an award at the quarterly award program. In math!! Munchkin was VERY surprised! And even more so to see me there...funny little bunny didn't even look for me beforehand! hee hee hee Once he got up on the stage, his teacher pointed me out to him--and still he was surprised.



(Sidenote: Only parents whose children are receiving awards are invited to the event, since it takes place during the day and space is limited. Most of the kids know this and look around when they come into the assembly...if they spot a parental unit, it's their lucky day!)


Way to go, Benster!!!
