Snowy Birthday for Silas

Silas celebrated a birthday and it was FANTASTIC. I was really nervous about it, but it couldn't have been better. The kids played outside for about 1.5 hours, sledding and building a gigantic snowman. They didn't want to come in and we barely had time to eat lunch & cake and open the presents before the guests needed to go home again. I love winter birthdays now!

Happy Birthday Silas! Our favorite things about you:

• Your laugh is the best laugh EVER.
• You are a sweet big brother (you always help take care of Jane and play with Lorelai).
• You are a tough little brother (you try very hard to keep up with Azael and Ephraim. You like to make them laugh).
• You are responsible and great at getting ready for the bus early every morning (6:58 a.m.... HELLOOO!)
• You love to play boardgames and have initiated many a night of family fun by inviting someone to play a game with you.
• You are a great friend. Your best friends are still Simon and Ethan from church.

And on and on, and on..... The point is: you are wonderful and we love you!
