Six

Yesterday our sweet boy turned 6.  Its hard to believe he's already that old.  He is such a great kid.  He is our tenderhearted sweet heart.  Who also loves to wrestle and beat up on his brother :)  One of the administrators at school told Brent as he was dropping off Colin one morning that Colin was the nicest kid in school.  And I have no doubt.  He never says anything bad about anyone. Loves to help out other kids in his class. His teacher put him at the table with the kids with special needs and Colin loves it.  Doesn't see them as any different - just loves to help.  We are so blessed to be his parents. For the most part he makes parenting easy.   He's a wonderful kid and we've loved the past 6 years.  Just wish it didn't go by as fast. 

  He wanted a birthday party with friends this year - the first time we've done a party. So we did a ninja party yesterday.  Colin was bouncing off the walls with excitement the whole day.   I didn't get many pictures of the party.  Just a few so hopefully Ant Ant or my dad will send me some. 

 The rain held off until almost the end. But the kids didn't mind.  They were out there running around in the rain. 

 And now that he is six finally (his best friend has been six since December) - he's already asking if he's now six and a half.

Thank you to everyone who came for making Colin's birthday special.
