Brooks turned 5. And instead of saying the usual, "I can't believe he is 5 already," I find myself thinking, "He is ONLY five?" He has been playing with his brothers and doing the stuff with them for so long that I seems so much older than 5.
He is a such a fun five year old. What a wonderful boy we get to celebrate! Still blonde as can be, this charmer is always trying to get a laugh out of others, or a reaction out of mom. I can't figure out which one he is going for yet! He is cleaver. And by cleaver, I mean overtime I ask him to pick up, he usually finds crafty ways to avoid doing the work, by getting a drinking, going to the bathroom, mysteriously disappearing, or my favorite, offering to go clean the office, where there isn't any work to be done. He is thoughtful. He regularly asks me if I want any water to drink. And ohhh what a cuddle. When the night comes, he is right up next to Luke or I snuggling in!
I am so delighted to be his mom!
