Happy Birthday big guy! Reggie had a very special birthday today, starting with 3 phone calls from the grandma’s and Aunt Liha/Maggie. Ryan was home this morning and made chocolate chip pancakes for breakfast, along with strawberries from the patch! The kids probably weren’t even hungry at lunch time. No, this is Reggie we’re talking about….he ate all his teriyaki chicken! We played a bit after school and then headed home to do homework. The deal was he couldn’t open his presents until his homework was done, nothing like a little motivation :o). He was very excited to open his presents which made it a little difficult to get out the door for dinner. Red Robin was the restaurant of choice and we all enjoyed a nice meal. Reggie hid under the table when the group came around to sing to him….I’m not sure they even knew who they were singing to! We love Reggie for lots of reasons…here’s just a few:
He loves being a kid and playing
His ability to make something out of nothing (these creations are NEVER thrown away)
His wonderful imagination
His love for his sister
His quiet leadership
He is so nice…every kid wants to be his friend
His toothless smile (he lost 3 teeth this year)
His mindfulness of others
His love for paper airplanes
He knows right from wrong and usually chooses right :o)
His funny questions like, “Why is it called a sandwich. There’s no sand in it?”
His love for Jesus and songs about God (that he sings with his own rocker spin)
His thinking before doing attitude
His gentle soul
His love for his bagels, ice cream and spinach
His dislike of “bubbles” from soda – the kid hates soda!
His love for his Grandparents
