Charlie is FIVE

I love this 5 year old!

He had to stare at these gifts for a couple of days. Trying super hard to figure out what everything was.

SOOOOO happy to find this big bear in the big box! Yes, after my oldest turned 14, I have NO problems buying a stuffed animal that makes a little guy BEAM!!! You'll never guess what he named it? Mr. Bear.

His special day was spent at Busch Gardens.

LOVES the Scorpion. Doesn't seem right that the upside down roller coaster is something he should be allowed to go on.

He was just full of himself this day. For good reason, it's his birthday.

And still my baby.......I needed him to fall asleep in the car. His cute, puffy cheeks. I could just nibble him in that neck area. We ended the day at the soccer field. Guess after all he did need this nap. Tonight he'll get to eat dinner at one of his favorite spots. Then afterwards we are getting banana splits from Dairy Queen. Doesn't that sound wonderful? I love my Charlie. He is full of life, love and hugs. I thank God for five wonderful years with my boy. God has big plans for this guy and I am so blessed to be his mom. Happy Birthday, Charlie!!!!!

IF by Rudyard Kipling

If you can keep your head when all about you are losing theirs and blaming it on you; If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you, But make allowance for their doubting too; If you can wait and not be tired by waiting, or, being lied about, don't deal in lies, or being hated don't give way to hating, And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise; If you can dream - and not make dreams your master; If you can think - and not make thoughts your aim, If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster and treat those two impostors just the same; If you bear to hear the truth you've spoken twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools, Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken, and stoop and build 'em up with worn-out tools; If you can make one heap of all your winnings and risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss, and lose, and start again at your beginnings, and never breathe a word about your loss; If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew to serve your turn long after they are gone, and so hold on when there is nothing in you except the Will which says to them; "Hold on!" If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue, or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch, If either foes nor loving friends can hurt you, If all men count with you, but none too much; If you can fill the unforgiving minute with sixty seconds' worth of distance run, Yours is the earth and everything that's in it, and which is more, you'll be a man, my son!

My Dad

our last christmas, little did we know!! we miss you-you are always in our thoughts. We sold his house, it was as if we had to say goodbye again. Nothing but fond memories. Movie night, hide and go seek, fishing, the beach, pool table, weight room, ice cream, bagels, peach diet iced tea, laughing...simply you. Miss you more than you will ever know. It feels as if it was just yesterday, thank God you are "free". "With your final heartbeat, kiss the world goodbye, go in peace and laugh on Glory's side. And fly to Jesus, fly to Jesus, fly to Jesus and LIVE....." .
