Guess Who's Seven?

Seven years ago, I became a Grandma.


A happy baby who loved his grandma


Your first birthday was filled with wonder.


At 2, you liked animals, and sitting on Grandma's table.


Three brought books of animals


and birthday celebrations were so much fun.


When you were 4, we went to Arizona for your birthday

celebrated with great-grandparents and cousins.



At 5, you were more reflective.


At 6 your love of transformers began.


Sometimes you wore your glasses, sometimes not.


And now you are seven


And often silly


Finding fun hiding places


But such a delight and joy.


Happy Birthday my sweet grandson. Grandma loves you so much.

Happy Birthday, Ethan!!! May this year be an incredibly-fun, much-blessed one for you and everyone who loves you!

Joanne, I cracked up at the picture of Ethan's hiding under the t-shirt because David does the exact same thing! He LOVES to come up behind me or his older siblings and tuck his head under our tshirt, resting his forehead against our backs and wrapping his arms around our waist. It made me smile to know that there's another little boy who does the same thing.

I am late reading this, Joanne, but it has been such a joy reading about Ethan. He's growing up so fast~that last picture shows his hair cut w/out the curls. He's so precious.
