James is THREE! We had a great day complete with birthday decorations, pancakes on the "You are special today" plate, a bike ride to the park, washing the car (a.k.a. playing with the hose), a trip to the library, swimming at the pool, James' dinner of choice (hot dogs, salad, chips and "root beard") and chocolate cake with chocolate frosting! What a day!
James was so cute today on his special day. He would sing "happy birthday to me" throughout the day, and whenever someone would wish him happy birthday, he would reply "tank you, I tree".
Emi and Clara were equally thrilled that there was a birthday to celebrate. They helped color birthday signs to decorate the dining room, and they were sure to give lots of extra hugs and kisses to the birthday boy. During morning and evening prayers, the girls expressed their thanks "for such a wonderful little brother" and that "we could celebrate James' special birthday." How sweet!!
Gifts from sisters, mom & dad and two sets of good friends delivered little gifts today....what fun!
James LOVES planes, trucks, diggers, tractors, buses etc. He received several matchbox planes and trucks.....and he immediately began pretending with them.
"Blow out the candles on your cake and make a wish......" Happy Birthday buddy, we love you!
Happy Birthday James. You and your buddy Ryan are growing up tooooo fast. Sounds like a great day. We miss your family!
