4 Years Old

A birthday is a huge deal for a little boy who feels like everyday should be celebrated with a party! Weeks before the big day, Zach wanted to begin the countdown. A package came 2 days early from Grandma Goostrey, and it was all he could do to keep his little fingers away for 2 WHOLE days. Couldn't he just tear open a corner and peek? What about giving them a good shake? With a very serious face he told me they smelled very important!

Finally August 7th arrived. As soon as the sun peeked out Zack came tearing down the stairs. "Where is my cake? Where are all the presents? When is the party?...." He didn't even pause long enough for an answer before bounding over to the table and insisting that his "Birthday breakfast HAS to be oatmeal!" That night the cousins came over and we played superhero games and opened presents.

Bad guys beware! I wouldn't want to run into this crowd in a dark alley!
