An Official Teenager!
Connor woke up on his birthday to 13 candles on a breakfast doughnut tower! We all sang and wished him a happy birthday right away because he was out the door early and then traveling to an away baseball game right after school.All of the boys had baseball games that night, and they all won-- can't beat that for wishes coming true! Mom and Dad arranged four different carpools so Mom could go to Connor's game. It was fun to see him doing something he enjoys so much on his birthday. The whole team celebrated with pizza and a big cookie after the game. Go Bruins! To be continued....
... the next day! Since it was so late when Connor got home, we waited for the next night after soccer and baseball practice (and a shower!) for presents, Chinese takeout for dinner and a chocolate peanut butter ice cream cake. Do 13-year-old boys still like Webkinz? YES, they do. And clothes, music, Wii games and baseball cards. And brothers, most of all.
As tears are rolling down my face reviewing your birthday pics, Connor, how I wish we could have been there for all these big days! You, too, Graeme and Owen and Pierce!!! (Hope those pictures are coming, too, Mom!!) I love you all sooooooooooooooooo very much (although sometimes, I'm sure, it's hard to feel that with me not there so much, but believe me, IT'S SOOOOOO TRUE!)! We'll be there in October for Mom's birthday (at least we're planning it! Don't hold your breaths but we're really trying!) Happy Birthdays to all and congrads, Graeme, on your entry into the Aaronic Priesthood! And Happy Number 1, Pierce, and happy days for you Owen! XOXOXOXOXOXOXO
