Go back to sleep!... Day 247 17JUL09

"Happy Birthday Jarrod.....now go back to sleep!" That's how my morning started out. Well, actually, Joshua had a bad dream and crawled into bed with us around 5:30...so...I crawled out and onto the sofa (he likes to hog the bed...Joshua not Lee). That's when Jarrod walked out of his room. Too excited about his birthday!

Jarrod had a great day. After he opened all of his presents, he built all of the Legos that he received. We then went to pick up his Ice Cream Birthday Cake and, of course, had to get a little sample for ourselves while we were there. In the evening, we went to Cameron's Birthday Party who shares the same day with Jarrod. The boys had a great time at an indoor putt-putt golf course. It was really cool and really fun.





Joshua had a great day as well. He is feeling great and had lots of energy.

Unfortunately, daddy had to work and missed most of the day with the boys, so we plan on having an all-day party tomorrow with lots of ice-cream cake and family and friends!!!

Sometimes, life can be really good. These are the "normal" days most people take for granted. Don't!

Birthdays are great! I'm so glad you had a good one and it will continue tomorrow, Jarrod. I know the inside putt putt had to be a lot of fun for you, Joshua and Cameron, not to mention your mom.

Renee, you are so right about living and enjoying the
"normal" days and living life to its fullest. What a blessing God gives us when he allows us to become parents. The picture of you with your sons is priceless!

I'm so glad to see all the pictures of Lego construction business. Love, Laura
