Double Digits!






David is thrilled to have come into the "Double Digits" birthday! He turned 10 on Monday! (Where did all the time go?) All David wanted was for a few neighborhood kids to get together, play kickball, and eat! (Boys are so easy in some ways!) David was honored that Chris Okyen, a teenage friend, and Meredith May, our church kids' director and family friend, also came to play ball. The girls and little boys joined us back at the house for cake, ice cream, and presents. Dad had to harass the girls at "the girls' table" provided by Caris! The day ended with everyone playing any kind of ball, tag, and battle imaginable! I am continuously amazed at the competitive nature of little boys in particular. David's shirt is covered in balls and says "All or Nothing"! Rich and I were talking about this competitive spirit later; but as I chose photos I didn't have enough room to enter the one of Rich taking on all the boys in the front yard with a Gladiator-like face!! "Boys will be boys" right?! HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO OUR WONDERFUL 10 YEAR OLD SON!!!!!!!!!!
