James had his 7th birthday this week. He was so excited. Every year it seems like he enjoys his birthday more and more. This year he was up until almost midnight excited about his birthday. First thing in the morning he got to open 1 present, it was his science shirt and he was so excited about it. He wanted his "science kit" and kept asking if he could open it all day long. I also gave him a button to wear that said "Happy Birthday". He was so excited to about it and couldn't wait to show all his friends at school.
After school he got to Skype with Grammy and Grandad and open his gift from them. He got a nerd bow and arrows and was so excited. His favorite movie is Brave so he couldn't wait to get outside and try it out.
Once Dad got home it was time for dinner, he choose his favorite Lasagna. I don't know if I have ever seen him shovel food in like he did then.
After dinner it was finally time to open presents. He was so excited about everything he got. Billy gave him a play dough baking set, Mikey gave him a large "draw board", Dad gave him some survival pants, and we also gave him a Science box full of stuff to do experiments. Grandma and Grandpa gave him a set of Science tools, which is what he had been waiting for all day! He also got and Electricity kit from Uncle Scott, and some finger paints and paper from his cousins.
Cake time! James wanted a "Temple Run Brave" cake this year. Maybe one of the simplest cakes I have done but he LOVED it so that is what is important.
The next morning it was hard to get him to school because he was so excited about his science. He has been doing science projects ever since.
Some things about James from the past year:
James has really started loving school. He has lots of friends and talks about Angel all the time. He is learning to read and does really well sounding out words, but has a hard time when words don't follow the rules. He doesn't have obsessions quite like he used to. He seems to like more things, and not quite as intensely as he used to. Some things he has liked during the past year: Lightening, bear hunts, Tangled, Ammon, Sun Glasses, Marble Runs, Umbrellas, Dream island, Temple Run and writing books.
