The Big 7

I am amazed at how quickly the year passes. I shouldn't be, it happens all the time. But when I made the cake and put a 7 on it, I shook my head, once again, at the realization that he is 7.

He really wanted the real tractor, but that will have to be a birthday down the road.

He has already learned that getting this is a good thing!
Lexy knows the value of a gift card! After explaining the process to Dawson, he is excited to try it out.


He's a little leary of the smoke from the candles and setting off the smoke detector. Yikes, wait until you have 15 candles on the cake!

He has already checked the weather for next week, and if they are right, Dawson should be in our driveway on Wednesday, earning a few dollars and using his best present. Oh to be a 7 year old boy!
Happy Birthday, Dawson! I hope you always are as happy as you are today.
