eight!

My Jonah had a birthday nearly a month ago.  We had a fun party.  I took 3 of his friends swimming with us at the nearby rec center, then we came home for pizza, cake, and presents.

eight

This wasn’t just any birthday, it was his EIGHTH birthday!

The Saturday morning after his birthday he was baptized.  My parents and grandma came for a visit.  My dad gave a sweet talk about baptism, and Barry did the baptism and confirmation.

It is so fun to watch my sweet boy grow up.  From the instant he came into this world he has been determined and persistent in getting what he wants and doing what he thinks is right.  I have said many prayers that we can help channel his strong will toward good, and he seems to have a innate sense of what is right and fair.

And he’s super cute.

I love you Jonah!

  1. First thing that jumps out at me is that all the kids are blond. Is that a requirement? :)

  2. Tell Jonah we are so proud of him. He has no choice but to be a great kid when he his blesses by such great parents and siblings. We miss you guys.
