On Rock's birthday, April 11th, we surprised him with a rock climbing session. It was fun watching him take chances, be adventurous and courageous. I jokingly told PJ, what if this set his path to be a real, rock climbing, dare devil! Oh gosh, I'd die!
We have an 8 year old now. Crazy! I can't help but feel a little sad. Thankful though. I know parents always say the same thing--"it goes by so fast!"It really does. So many memories but it almost feels like not enough time.
I love this kid. My heart melts because of the love I have for him. PJ feels the same way. He calls Rock "his main man". We are so privileged to be parenting this kid and to see him grow in stature and in knowledge. It's a privilege and a joy to teach him the ways of the Lord. He's such a blessing. He makes me strive to be a better mom.
Some milestones:
He is such a great, big brother to City. He loves taking care of her (most of the time:)
He baked his first cake and it came out scrumptious. He made it for his auntie Reese's birthday party.
He had his first piano recital.
He loves sewing, science, and nature.
He creates crazy dance moves that crack me up.
awww happy birthday, rock!!!! <333 can't believe he's 8 either. seems like just yesterday that he was a little babe with long hair ;)
