Happy 8th Birthday, Z!

There's nothing I love more than this kid.

He lives in his own world of exploration and learning ...

and he is happiest when he's lost in a good book.

He loves openly and completely ...

and he's mine, all mine.

Happy eighth birthday to my favorite kid in the world. You're growing up too fast but I can't wait to see what's in store for you during the next eight years.

Love,
Mom

  4. Happy Birthday Z!!! It is nice to see your face. I don't think I've ever seen it before. (I'm still trying to get my husband to let me show at least one photo of my son but no go. My husband is a paranoid freak. But oh well.) You're growing up great because you have a super great mom who loves you more than anything. Never lose your love of reading. It will serve you well throughout your life.

  7. Thanks, Danielle! He is growing like a weed. I am guessing he'll pass me up by about sixth grade, if not sooner. :)
