Happy Birthday, Nathan!!






Yep, that's right, my boy is 4. Well, a little early, his birthday is March 21. First day of spring, God, I can't believe 4 years have gone by. Age 3 was a rough year, he was hitting terrable 2's and troublesome 3's at the same time. It was a year full of emotions, not knowing, and having to find out. Watching him grow, new sneakers, catching up on milestones.. and the laughter and tears. His first roller coaster trip to Crystal Palace, summer at the cottage, a trip to the camp, and fires in the backyard. His relationship growth with his grandparents, aunts and uncles. His excitement over new toys and books at Christmas, curling up to read stories, colouring, painting.. making the picture window into a 'picture' window. Thinking it's Spiderman making the webs around the house. His first knock knock joke, and singing songs. I can't take him anywhere without everyone 'oohing and ahh'ing' over him, and how he can just ham it up. My, he's a charmer. The struggles to get him to answer questions, and point to a picture, to make a choice. Signing 'I love you' after a hug and a kiss. Getting tubes in his ears, endless appointments and tests. His big boy bed and potty training, a Diego bedroom. He loves his toys, books and movies.

His party was a blast for both the kids and the adults. We played music and bean bag toss games, the boys got along wonderfully and it was so good to catch up with my friends. We had a transformer cake and ice cream, with bakugan table settings. He recieved some clothes, Bionicles, transformers, Bakugan, a sticker book and some cars. A huge basketball net that transforms into a dart board and game table, a golf caddy, and an inflatable hopping balloon thing with Superman on it. Happy Birthday, my Son, I love you.
