Belated birthday post for Owen


HAPPY BIRTHDAY OWEN!!! My little guy turned 6 today! I can't believe it. I feel like a bad mom today. Owen woke up at 5:30 am and wondered where his decorations and presents were (for my kids birthdays I decorate one chair with ribbons and a birthday sign and put their presents on the table). I felt horrible. I was too tired last night to do it and I thought I would wake up before him! So we decorated together and then he got to go and pick out his birthday present with Joe. He got a new BMX bike - it is pretty nice! He is very excited about his new bike. I will post a picture asap - i loaned my camera cord to someone and they have not returned it yet! After decorating we had a yummy breakfast (waffles) and got ready for Owen's party. We had both of our families over for hot dogs, pineapple, chips and cake. Owen requested the gourmet lunch menu! We had a great time. At the end of the day Owen said to me "Mom, this was the best birthday ever!"
I am so grateful for Owen. He is the sweetest boy and he is so caring. I will never forget the first time I held him. I think a first born holds an extra special place in a mother's heart. I am grateful to my Heavenly Father for blessing me with such an amazing little boy. He is just so good! I love him more than he will ever know. Happy birthday buddy - I love you!

Owen is such a good kid. He is funny, kind, smart, and freakishly good at athletics :).

Grandma Rae said the chips were very good. Wish I could have been there!
