The "Birthday Couch" has designs on the whole house and spreads further with each birthday.
When I came in first thing in the morning, I saw Aidan doling out little pebbles from his teacup.
Oh! Nerds. Perfect pre-birthday breakfast appetizer.
He requested Swedish pancakes drenched in syrup and.....what else but Nerds?
Bad quality photo, but just try to look at his face without grinning.
Later that afternoon, he almost fell asleep on Grandma Owen's lap. Nerd-eating on a heroic scale exhausts little boys, even boys who are newly six years old.
One haircut later, he revived enough to enjoy his birthday supper and a Jello poke cake (the easiest cake ever, by request, and since it was gardening week, it met with my full approval).
I can't handle that cheesy grin! What a boy.
Our boy. Our wonderful work. Our joy.
We love you, Little Fire. Here's to six!
Nerds is a pretty good way to start the day, I'd say.
ReplyDeleteWhat a pleasure to watch him grow.
