HAPPY 10th BIRTHDAY JOHNATHAN

Happy Birthday Johnathan. It is hard to believe that you are already 10 years old. I remember the day you came into this world as though it was yesterday. I treasure every moment we share together and look forward to all of the great things I can teach you and you can teach me. Here are a list of 10 things for your 10th Birthday that I love you for:

#1: You love to make people laugh. Maybe it's because you were born on April Fools Day.

#2: You have the greatest smile.

#3: You have the greatest curly hair.

#4: You love your sister and would do anything for her even though she drives you crazy once in a while..

#5: You love music & love playing any kind of instrument you can get your hands on.

#6: You love playing sports.

#7: You are kind to everyone.

#8: You are a great friend to your classmates.

#9: You are thoughtful. In the photo above you are writing a lullaby for your new baby brother.

#10: You just ROCK!!!

Ever year since the night before Johnathan turned 1 Matt and I started a tradition to fill our children's bedroom with balloons so that when they awoke the next day on their Birthday they would be surrounded by Birthday balloons. Since the kids have gotten older we allow the child who doesn't have the Birthday the next day to stay up late and help us. After Johnathan went to sleep last night we stayed awake blowing up balloons to fill his bedroom. Below are some photos of Aubrey helping us. She got sooo tired and had about enough. We threw balloons over our loft to her and she put them into his bedroom quietly so he wouldn't wake up. Check out our craziness.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOHNATHAN!!
