......my firstborn entered this world & life hasn't been the same since! He is has brought more joy into our lives than we could ever have imagined! As if he hadn't already celebrated enough, we spent the entire day today celebrating some more. He opened his Star Wars Annakin costume from all of us first thing this morning (the mask is really creepy, but he specifically ask for the costume with the mask!). We sang, blew out candles & had cupcakes for breakfast, then it was off to church. After church we celebrated with a pancake lunch at Cracker Barrel (his choice) & lollipops for dessert. Late this afternoon, we headed to Cold Stone Creamery & had ice cream for dinner (we said it was for his birthday, but the truth is, we do that a lot on Sundays in the summer!). We took our ice cream down to Trussville Springs to walk on the paths & play on the BANK of the Cahaba. Well, Daniel spent the evening of his 6th birthday splashing & skipping rocks IN the Cahaba (the BANK part didn't last long before they were both soaking wet!:). We had to strip them down to get back in the car & they had to ride home in their underwear. Daniel was really concerned about that being 'against the law'- could it be that he is starting to have some modesty?? And, I was really pleased that he was concerned with being lawful. I just wish some of that 'lawfulness' or just plain old common sense would've kicked in on Friday when he thought it would be a good idea to raise the window in his bedroom and climb out on our roof!!! Thanks to incidences such as that, I have definitely aged WAY more than the six years he's been with me! I still wouldn't trade him for anything, though! It was a really fun day & Daniel is sooooo excited to be SIX!

Hard to believe you have a 6 year old! Daniel would love our VBS this week, it's Heros of the Bible and the kids dressed up like super-heros today!
