Happy Birthday Big Boy!

It is hard to believe our 'little' boy is 7! So to honor him today's post is about the Birthday Boy. He is such a handsome young man with a face full of freckles and big blue eyes. He is such a sweet spirited boy who cares deeply for others, especially his family. His dad has been teaching him what it means to be a gentleman and that he is. Always looking out for his sisters and mommy. He loves to hold open the door for us and serve the ladies first (most of the time). He has a huge heart and is very genuine and sincere. He is also a baby lover-he loves little ones and is so gentle and sweet with them. The picture of him with his little buddy from Alabama on him, is from this summer. He had become a human ladder and our little friend would start down at his feet and climb to the top-giggling and proud of his accomplishment.  

Perhaps one of my favorite things about him is his love of being close to you. He loves sitting on you, hugging you, holding your hand and at times mauling all over you. He greets me every morning with  his "morning kiss for mommy". What a great way to be greeted-I hope he never out grows that. I will cherish all of the hand holding I can get while it lasts, knowing that each year he is growing into a young man. 
Tradition in the Waggoner house is you get to choose dinner on your birthday and he has chosen to go out to eat-woo hoo!

Kade - Happy Birthday! I can not believe you are 7. Heather and I were so disappointed we could not come and be apart of you and Madison's skateland party. We miss you so much, and hope to see you soon. Hope you had a great birthday dinner at BJs. With much love, Rob.
