Another September Birthday

My baby's eleven! Because he homeschools, I don't often get to see him next to kids his age, so yesterday when I dropped him off for soccer practice with those BIG 5th and 6th graders, it kinda made me sad. I'm not one (as Jo knows) to get sentimental about my kiddies getting older, but *sniff* he just seems too little to be so big! I have to admit that some of those 6th graders are jumbo-sized, just maybe somewhat older than the average 6th grader?

My boy is still a little boy. He was thrilled with his new pet dove which is the very essence of peace and tranquility. He's a very gentle caregiver for all his fowl (as well as for his pet tarantula and pet rabbit.)

Happy Birthday, Boy!

This isn't your youngest boy, is it? I always think of him as being three years old. He can't possibly be eleven!

LOL! He WAS indeed three years old once! Yep, he's the baby.

Happy Birthday! Our boys were just "babies" last time I saw him. Remember how he got stung by the bee? He was SO brave!!
