Jaden .... you are such a blessing to me!

WOWZERS!!  The past few months have been filled with birthdays,
packing, moving, unpacking, oh did I mention unpacking?!

Jaden turned 7 in December and I still do not understand how my baby is
11 years from being an "adult".  I have learned so much much from you buddy
I love you so much.  Every day I see how God is teaching and growing you into
such a neat little man.  You are smart, funny, and I love playing games with you!
What an incredible big brother you are!! One of my favorite things to do is
watch you play with your brothers and sister.  I frequently notice Jacee watching you throughout
the day and I can see how much she adores you. Every day I learn more about your personality and I get to dig into your little world. A few of the things you really enjoy right now are baking, playing board games, reading, and playing outside. You and I ran our first 2 miles together the other day and I am so proud of you! At the very last 200 yards of our run you wanted to race(one of the things you always want to do) and we raced!! BOY!, you beat me! I realized at that moment that daddy and I have a big kid! You little stinker! No matter how tall you grow, how strong you become, how fast those feet will move, you will always be mommys boy! As you grow physically, I pray that you will grow in your knowledge, faith and trust in our savior, Jesus Christ. There are so many things I pray for you, but I think one of the most often prayers for you specifically is that you would grow to love the lord, and that your desire to know him would be greater than anything else in life. I love you, buddy Mommy ��
