Amos Turns NINE!!

 Happy 9th Birthday, Amos! He asked me in the car tonight why everyone kept asking him if he was having a good birthday. He sincerely asked, "How can you not have a good birthday?!" :) This is my boy who never has a bad day. For fun, I just asked Sophia to describe him. She said: funny, free-spirited, happy, and chill.
