My "original" baby turned SIX a few weeks ago. My, what a charming little boy he is. He is overly excited about getting older. It has been neat to see him grow and become a young man. He truly is the sweetest boy, and for that I am ever so grateful. I owe a lot of credit to my better half. He is doing a fantastic job raising a future man and teaching him all about "man stuff" I have the job of smothering him with love and making sure he knows he's still and will always be my teeny tiny 5 lb 11 oz baby boy. ;)
Stetson is the perfect combination of tough, sweet, and kind. He is really into Karate and fighting; so Nat has been teaching him all about that. (NO, we're not raising a violent, out of control maniac. There are lots of rules and regulations for this subject of life. ;)
He's a total package I tell ya, I always say he'll be the best husband one day. Not only is he tough, but he's a sweetheart. He always puts others before himself. He always holds the door open for people. Naturally, when in public I always make sure to be behind my children as we move about, so I found myself stopping and waiting for him to go through before me, but he wont. So I had to reprogram a tad; I definitely had a brain-sob fest the day I let that go and realized he's growing up and I need to let him do his thang and hold the door open for his mama.
side note- he's become quite the swimmer this year... oh how good it is to have confident swimmers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
He loves being a big brother! Never has there ever been any sort of jealousy from this guy about having his "spot" stolen. I'm so glad that Weston has him to look up to!
Madelynn, our little gift-giver worked hard to save up some money to buy this guy an Emoji pillow.
Stetson's love language is STUFFED ANIMALS. so it truly was the best gift he's ever gotten. These 2 don't always mesh, but its sweet to see the love they have for each other.
We had a sweet family day for him, and of course bowling was involved. ;)
We got him a kayak 'cuz WHAT WERE WE THINKING ONLY BUYING ONE?!?!?!
He's gotten very good at it. I underestimated him a tad.
Oh my big boy. What a joy it is to see you grow. Happy 6th Birthday.
