FIVE

April 17 Gates turned FIVE....
I can't believe Gates is FIVE.
He is the greatest kid. (Hey if a momma can't brag on her own kid who can)
He is always the first one to say thank you when we take the kids out to eat.
He can count by twos, by fives and by tens.
He knows all his letters.
He talks slow but very maticulously.
He has a great memory just like his sister. (makes it very hard for mommy to trick)
Loves his siblings and is very protective of them.
Has the sweetest little smiling face.
Hardly ever gets into trouble.
...and is the shortest kid in his class and officially the shortest kid in our family.
Yes, BECK has passed him up.
Gates birthday party is not until Wednesday but we did take cupcakes to school on his real birthday.
Check out this happy face.
It took him five tries but he get them all out.
Oh my, how this little face melts this mommas heart.



My sweet FIVE year old.
