It was such a special day.
We started with eating donuts and hanging out home. As Judah put it, "we had donuts for our cereal." For lunch he picked to go to McDonalds and play. After McDonalds we came home and opened his presents and ate his Star Wars cake. He got a skateboard, legos and tons of star wars stuff.! Later that night we took him out to Motor cross races. He loved that! Dirt bikers race and quads, that is Judah's type of fun for sure!
It is a joy to celebrate my kids' birthday. A joy, definatly better than your own now! Birthday's are important to me, it is one day to celebrate just them! The sum of Judah..man.. He is a huge smile. When I think of him I think of the most thoughtful little boy. He wanted me to go to dirt biking with them at night for his birthday, I told him I dont think I could cuase of my broken foot. He said, "then I wont go I will stay home and take care of you."
When you sit by me Judah you make sure my hair is always behind my ears so it doesnt touch my face. You dont like it when it is in my face. You even like to sit and brush my hair. You played soccer this year, and your perseverance and aggressiveness made us so proud. You were a star, never stopped. Not even in the last game when it was at least 105 degrees out at 1' o clock
and you were giving your every last steam. After we pray for you at night you are the one that says, "mom can I pray for you now?" and he goes on and on thanking God for me and asks God to protect me. You crack us up. You dance hilarious and you got moves that we dont even know where they came from. Judah you are always willing to help make food for you or anyone else. You rush to clean things up before I can get to it. On the other side., you take forever to do something when it comes to your chores in the morning. You get distracted very easily and I will find you naked playing with your legos, cause while you were getting dressed you sat on one, and then started to build something and forgot that you were supposed to be getting dressed! You like to just brush the the teeth in front of your mouth, and you have the best smile. You struggle with keeping your anger down when you get upset. BUt, we are praying for you and you are getting better at being calm when your brother does something to you you dont like. You stop and try to take a breath and then talk about it. You just told me that you learned "to love my neighbor" but you are just learning what they REALLY means. You are Levi are buds, and you and Josiah are becoming better and better friends. I am teaching you pre-school stuff at home, and you enjoy it somewhat, and get excited to do your school stuff. You want to be an astronaut or a dirt biker!! :) Pretty big differences! The combo he has is extremely thoughtful, and loyal and the most daring boy of them all. He has no fear and will try anything. He needs to stick by Levi who will balance him out. While being babysat you decided to jump over the fence and get the frisbee that was thrown over. Once you got over there, you didnt know how to get back! You have become an awesome skateboarder, and an awesome bike rider too. I am just so thankuf to have you as my little boy, judah brings so much fun to our family!
