Too Much Birthday!

Has anyone ever read this book? It was one of my favoites when I was little and we got to see it played out in real life yesturday at Hunter's Birthday.


I don't know what caused it. Was it the sleepover at Grandpa and Grandma's the night before? Was it 13 people in our house at one time? Was it eating his food too fast so he could get to the presents? Was it the Car's themed balloons? Was in the table full of gifts? Was it the pink eye that still has not gone away?
Who knows but what ever it was it happened. Midway through present opening he got a stomach. After the presents were open he hid under the table, refused a bit of his Car's themed cake and then came the crocodile tears. It was all too much birthday for him. Maybe next year we wont have a big party or maybe next year will be different all together.
Here are some picture pre-melt down:

Nice Face

Now a silly one!

Now that cake is some nice Mommy and Daddy team work.

Yes that is a train toy box! John made it for him!!

Happy Happy Birthday To You!

Hunter Bryan-

You have filled our lives with such love and joy! We are continually amazed at all you do and say. Right now you gearing up for preschool next fall and working on your word recognition. I brought in the mail the other day and you floored me by pointed at a huggies flyer and telling me that it said Potty Dance! Your other favorite word to point out is hot. You successfully learned this one from your many Hot Wheels cars. You have a quest for knowledge and are constantly asking us to read you the words. Your mind is going to take you to great places.
Looking back at how far you have come we are so so grateful to our mighty God. You no longer need a nebulizer everyday and you can run and play just like any other kiddo! You still are allergic to milk but it doesn't slow you down one bit!
You also are an amazing big brother! I cherish the times you to lay on the floor and play together. When your brother is starting to get upset you are just the guy to give him a pipe and make a monkey face to make him smile! We look forward to watching your friendship grow!
Your love for God has also grown! You look forward to Sunday school with Ms. Beth every week and you soak up every once she has to give you. You are learning to pray like a big boy too. You still ind comfort in the little repetitive prayers but you have learned that a prayer is more like a conversation. You pray about silly things your pray about serious things and you always end your bed time prayer in I love you, Good Night, Amen. It fills our hearts with such joy to see you developing a personal relationship with God. We hope you know that God will always be there for you in the hard times and the good times.
We love you so so much Hunter Bryan and can not wait to see what this year has in store for you!
Love-
Mommy and Daddy!
