Ezra is twelve!

TWELVE TODAY



Me: What is your dream birthday, Ezra?
Ezra: I don't know.
Me: Do you like your birthday?
Ezra: I guess. I'm just getting older. 
Haha

I asked him if he told anyone at school that today was his birthday, and he had told one friend. 😂 I asked him where he wanted to eat for his birthday, and he wanted to check with Sophia and Amos first to see what they like. 😍

Oh man oh man, I LOVE this kid. I don't have to worry about him. He gets up when he's supposed to, showers without me telling him. He likes to look sharp and smell good. :) He has a big, protective, tender heart that only a few get to see. He's funny and athletic. He wants to do the right thing. I am so grateful God blessed me with this boy. I pray that he always follows Him. Biggest fan right here! 🙋💙
