HAPPY 7th BIRTHDAY!!!

I know ... for those of you who have known our family since the birth of Spencer, he has been such a blessing and joy to us!! From the moment he was born, he has been happy and lively and 110% all boy. Even during those times that I have been a wreck from all the curiosity of his little mind and hands, I would not change a day. Well ... maybe a few .... but today, we celebrated his 7th birthday. It truly has gone by quickly and it is hard to believe. He is growing up so fast and I swear he has grown over an inch in the last month!! His Levi's fit a month ago and now, they are looking like high waters!!! He wanted a chocolate chip cookie cake for his birthday. Erica helped me decorate it with the icing and sprinkles. Tomorrow, we will celebrate at the park after school with his classmates. At church this morning, he came out after the service with a big wad of wet paper towels hanging out of his mouth. We removed it to only find a lower FAT LIP bleeding and he knocked his top tooth (which thank God it was a baby tooth and already slightly loose) completely loose and swollen and purple around the gum. His friendly Tyler brought it to the attention of the teachers by yelling out, "we got a bleeder over here!" So after cleaning him up and getting a bag of ice, off we went to eat chopped up chicken nuggets from McDonalds. We let him pick lunch and back to old faithful we went:) In the end, it was a good day .... he now has $51 saved with his birthday money and Jack has decided that "Spencer is rich!" Happy Birthday, Spencer! We thank God for your life and love you very much!!!
