How is our baby boy a TEENAGER?!?!?!
Today our kindhearted, loving, funny, and football loving kid turns 13.
He is our joy boy.
He is our deep feeler.
He is our hard worker.
He is all about justice.
He is a good friend.
He completes our family more than words can say!
Sadly, he is sick today. BOO! He had plans to have a couple of friends over after school to play video games, eat pizza and just hang out. He was crushed that we had to cancel those plans.
But we pivoted and made the best of his special day.
We made sure things were ready for him when he woke up, as we knew he wasn't going to school.
He requested chocolate chip pancakes with pineapple and melon for breakfast.
On the red plate. Of course!
Even tho Evelyn was at school and Doug was in the office, they said he could open presents over breakfast, much to his delight!
Evelyn got him a mug that is black until you put hot liquid in it, then it shows a funny cartoon. He LOVED it!
He napped, read, and played video games and card games thru the day. He asked if we could get McMenamins for dinner and have banana splits for dessert. Of course, we obliged!
Matthew's good friend Dayton (who was supposed to come over today after school) stopped by with a porch drop of Crumbl cookies!! It was so thoughtful of him and made Matthew's day for sure. We are so grateful Matthew has found some really good friends this year!
Banana split loving kid!
Finished his birthday off with some Marvel movies... which he loves.
Matthew, you are a delight to us, and to your Heavenly Father. As you enter your teen years, I pray you will keep seeking Jesus and remain as thoughtful and kind as you already are. We love you so very much!
Happy Birthday Matthew Donald!
