This year you celebrated your 9th birthday during the Covid-19 pandemic. This has been such a strange time in our history. You had your friend, Alec from school, spend the night. We got Chick-Fil-A breakfast for you and then did a family birthday party that night with a cookie cake.
This year you were in 2nd grade and you had a pretty good year. You started out not really liking your teacher, but by the end of the year you liked her ok. Earlier this year, you quit ballet and started Parkour. You love Parkour and I think it was a good move for you. You don't like to make mistakes, and Parkour is tough. You have learned to fall and get back up and try again. I love the growth I see in you each year.
This year we went to Disney for the first time. You seemed to love it and it was fun to see all the magic in your eyes. You want to work for Nintendo when you get older. You are growing your hair out, and so is Mattox. You and Mattox are best friends. You tolerate your little brother but he isn't the nicest to you either. You are intelligent, kind, sweet, convicted, and I am convinced you are an enneagram 9. You are a little out there sometimes, but you are my favorite kid to go camp with. I wish we could camp more. I hope you had a great birthday and I look forward to watching you grow into the man God is calling you to be.
I love you so much. Happy Birthday!
Love,
Mom
