HAPPY 8TH BIRTHDAY- BIG BOY E!!!!

Eight years ago today
after a long, arduous labor this
 LARGE TEN POUND PLUS
sweet boy was born
into our family.

He has been such a blessing to us.
He is smart, sweet, silly
and has a tender heart
and he LOVES saving money.

We won't be with him today
to celebrate-
because he lives 6+ hours away
but we are with him in spirit
and called to wish him a
HAPPY BIRTHDAY.


We might even have a present
for you, Big E!
Your mom will give it to you for us!

MAYBE it is 
markers you can share with your sister!
In case she runs out!
We all know how much fun
that is!

Or-
Maybe it will be something
for your 
NEW BIRTHDAY PRESENT
YOUR PET!
Please DO NOT bring him into 
MY ROOM at YOUR HOUSE
early in the morning
when I am visiting!

Waking up next to Papa is scary enough!

Have a great birthday, Ethan!
We love you to the moon and back!!!!

Diana, I am sending birthday wishes to Ethan. He is growing up too. Although I think he's is still at that squeezable age. LOL. Oh boy you know he going to tease with that lizard. LOL Things like that you have to worry about stepping on. Yikes. I think of them as snakes with feet. Blessings to all, xoxo, Susie

Happy Birthday to your grandson! I am sure you'd love to be with him on this day, but that is quite a distance to travel. Sending weekend hugs to you dear friend.

Ha! I love it. Your grandkids are the cutest. I know it must be hard to be so far away on his birthday...then again, this particular birthday, with his new pet, you might not be so sad! ;)

Oh that face! On both of them! They must get away with a lot with those innocent eyes. My son got a gecko for his 8th birthday too. It lived 10 years!! Happy Birthday Ethan!

One thing for sure the genes in your family know how to make precious, adorable children. He is so cute. Watch out for the girls when he gets older.

Happy Birthday to sweet Ethan! I can't believe he's already 8! I've been following along and watching him grow. This is such a funny picture of BrightEyes. I hope Ethan had a special day doing all the things he loves. And that lizard creeped me out hehehehe.

love, ~Sheri

ps...that was a cute story about CJK thinking of you when they drove through Starbucks, and even more wonderful that your son drove back 7 miles just to get a coffee and goodie for you. : )

Oh you just crack me up, girl. What a cute and funny way to wish E a happy Birthday! By the way, the cute little gecko is adorable and all but I would really not want him in my bed either...LOL!

:-) Happy Birthday :-)

Nonnie said...

That beautiful little face. Happy birthday to your sweet boy. I wouldn't want that lizard in my room either. It is quite a unique lizard though. Oh dear, that little girl with the markers. She is washable and what a precious picture. At least she didn't mark all over the walls? I hope?

Deb @ Frugal Little Bungalow said...

Happy Birthday! One of mine was 9.1 pounds and that was big enough / hard to imagine pushing 10 lbs out! :)
