Happy Birthday to Micah



Micah just celebrated his 7th birthday, and 5th with our family.  Crazy how fast time flies!

He had a "friend" party this year at Andy B's.  They did Laser Tag and the arcade.  I felt sorry for him in a way because his birthday is right at the beginning of the summer and people are traveling.  He didn't have a huge turnout, but it was enough friends to have a good time.  I think he had a great time at the party.

On his actual birthday, Maddie had practice so we went out to dinner the night before.  He chose Compadres for his dinner which was yummy because we hadn't had Mexican in a while.  Then the day after his birthday, we had the family over for a cake and ice cream.  I think he had a great 7th birthday!




Yay for a new bike

So we thought all our celebrating was over, but after church the Sunday after his birthday, we went out to lunch with Cole and Christy, one of the staff members at our church.  By complete coincidence, we discovered that a group of youth from the church were eating lunch at the same place.  Micah mentioned to Cole that he had just had a birthday and then before you know it, he had called the group over to sing to Micah.  I was able to get it on video.  Micah had no idea what was happening until they were well into it but he loved every second of the attention!



I love this little 7 year old boy with all my heart.  He is so sweet and has the most loving heart.  He is still having some behavior challenges (typical for a boy, I know) but he's also shown some growth.  He is an incredible reader, and is also good at math.  He still loves Legos the most of anything and is awesome at building them.  He can follow the instructions but can also make his own unique creations.  I'm looking forward to watching him grow and mature through this next year!
