A Special Birthday Boy

My tree climbing, nature loving, creature caring, lego master, who has such a strong sense of right and wrong, understands the strength of his body, tender hearted, cuddly, self motivated to explore so many different passions, costume loving, deep belly laughing, silly humour, embraces the magical world, a gentle soul who has a beautiful spiritual understanding I admire, that is just a window into my Ben. Today, it is his 9th birthday, but he wants us to celebrate 8 again, because who wants to grow older, certainly not him. Happy 8th birthday - what a gift you are!








Ben made his own cake, a layer of skittles in between two layers of white cake, iced with chocolate butter frosting. A third cake had a very elaborate lego creation for a cake topper, an Indian Jones scene. He was thrilled with a viking shield made by dadda, a viking cape and pillow from mama, fishing magazine from Shai, Elias made him a wood axe, Aria got fudge ingredients for him to use and made a finger game. He was thrilled with it all.

Happy Birthday Ben!
It looks like a beautiful day.
Ryan wants to be eight again too - you could be twins.
