Michael had his ninth birthday on June 19! We celebrated with a small party at home (with this many children we only do large parties on Bday's 1,4,8,12,and 16). The night before was Cub camp and he was devastated about getting another year older. It means he has to change Den's and he is not one for change of any kind. I told him he would get to make new friends and in his "military brat" mind he equated that with not being able to keep his old friends. Once this notion was put aside he was much happier.
He got to do his own cake this year.
The morning of his Birthday he came in my room and asked if he looked any older. I told him "so much so, that I think I am going to have to cry", and I was telling the truth. With Seri being the oldest I guess we tend to focus on how much she is growing up. I feel like Michael snuck his in, like he grew more mature while I wasn't looking and then one day I am astonished that he is my little boy. I almost feel like putting a missing person notice out on my little boy, not sure where this mature and older one came from.
Happy Birthday Sweetie!!!!
