9 years.... 9 years old my boy and I still get overwhelmed having all your buddies over for a party. I still don't totally get boys. I don't get all the wrestling, touching, bodily noises and sports obsessions. I don't get the need to poke and pester and make people laugh all the time. I probably will never totally understand all that, but I love that it makes you you and I love that it means you are all boy. Your dad and I are ready for the challenge to help shape all that energy and ambition into the man God wants you to be. I love that despite all that "boyness" this afternoon you were giving your sister Brooklyn "Eskimo kisses" and laughing hysterically with her. I love that you and Morgan have been going on a bike ride together each morning. I love that you still like to sit on my lap and still sleep with your bear. I love that your daddy is your hero and Hudson is your favorite little dude. I love that together we are learning about obedience, forgiveness and God's grace.
The golf passion is back!! You are in love with golf and you now like to be dropped off at the course and hit balls all on your own. You love the independence!
You loved this ride at the Boardwalk this summer. You really have no fear with rides and really want to go to a big amusement park.
You still think I'm cool and you still want me around most of the time. I'll take it while I can!
One of your newest hobbies is looking up pictures of sports figures and drawing pictures of them. It's fun to watch a little bit of creativity come from you.
You four are trouble sometimes, you have lots of fun, but you can be at each other's throats pretty quickly too! Mom and dad's prayer for you all is that you become each other biggest fans and best friends.
You started Cadets this year and have really taken to the challenge of earning badges and participating in that activity. I think you earned 6 badges this year!
You love your dad and will do anything to be like him. You don't like to let him down and you would spend every waking moment with him if you could!
Buds!
You love the Giants and 49ers and after the NBA championship you are now a Warriors fan. I think you would say Jordan Spieth is your favorite golfer. We always have to have a sport to follow! We love you bud and we can't wait to see what year 9 looks like!
