Sensational Six!

 This cute boy woke up on his 6th birthday and went to find his balloons in his room and his presents on the table (as per tradition). All smiles for his special day! This boy brings so much happiness into our family! He is such a good boy with a huge heart and thoughtful and wise beyond his years. Watching him grown and learn and become his own little person is incredible. He is smart as can be. Learning comes natural to him and he does so good in school without much of a struggle at all. He is full of life and smiles. He still holds his mama's hand, which she is grateful for more than he knows! We love you Kellen boy and are so lucky you are ours!
 As it turned out with Sarah being in town and his birthday being on a Saturday, we ended up having a big get together with Grammy's side of the family that day too. But that didn't stop us from celebrating this boy. 
 A nice big chocolate cake and pool party with all the cousins! So fun!


 When we got home we let Kellen open one of his gifts before dinner. He got an Awesome hot wheels track that he had been dying for. We all went into the room and built the track together. If you look closely at the pick below, Kellen was a bit less than happy to have all his siblings in the room with him for the tracks first run. 

 But once I kicked them all out he was all smiles. I get it. When you have a big family sometimes you just want a little space and alone time to enjoy something yourself. This boy is normally the quickest to give and share, so a little request for special time is fair enough! Especially on your birthday!
 All smiles with his card, stickers and his $6 from Grandma and Grandpa for his 6th birthday!

 What boy doesn't die for a remote control car?!
And what cute almost 2 year old little girl doesn't LOVE chocolate cake!!
 A few weeks later this lucky boy got to have his birthday party at Chuck E Cheese with his best friend Joseph! We invited a bunch of his friends from class and a few from church. The boys had so much fun!

 You always hope and pray that your child will find a friend that compliments them, that is a good kid and the kind of person you want your child to turn to and lean on. I am so grateful and lucky that Kellen and Joseph have each other. I know that they are young and that friendships will change and grow. But no matter what happens with their friendship, whether they stay best friends for life or grow apart a bit and make new friends as they get older, I will always love and be grateful for this friend he had as a child!
