Jacob turns 11!

My firstborn has turned eleven. How in the world did it happen? How do I have an eleven year old? That is what I keep asking myself as I watch my baby grow up. He is nearly as tall as me and his feet are bigger than mine! I am not sure where the time has gone. It seems like yesterday he was learning to walk.

Jacob has turned into a fine young man. I couldn’t be more proud of him. Don’t get me wrong, he is still a typical eleven year-old and most days prefers to play than to do his chores, but overall he is very responsible, kind, tender-hearted, sweet boy. I love you Jake! Happy 11th birthday!

He celebrated with our family on his actual birthday, but then on Tuesday he took a couple close friends and went to Seven Peaks Water Park. We played for hours and then came home for pizza and ice-cream cake. Afterward they played night games till it was too late to walk straight. So much fun!

    To grandparents it was a nano moment ago when little Jake came to us – to mothers and fathers it seems like yesterday – but to Jake, it has been a lifetime.

    Happy Birthday, Buddy… you have impacted us all in so many wonderful ways! 🙂
