Yesterday my oldest child turned 9. My Fritter, who was seven months old when I started this blog is nine years old. I can hardly believe it! I've learned so much over the years and much of it is because I have been given the wonderful opportunity to raise this big boy of mine. Watching him grow and develop has been one of the biggest blessings of my life.
Fritter is a big Star Wars fan and requested a cake of the same theme. I've realized I'm not the best at cake decorating drawing with frosting, so I punted and cut out the images I could find to put on the cake. Some silver sprinkles worked as stars and gummy characters added a little more...something. He had also asked if I could somehow make the cake cutting knife into a light saber, but I wasn't feeling that talented. Before dinner, a good friend watched my two younger children and Dan, Fritter, Ladybug, and I went to see the Peanuts movie at the theater. So much fun!
So here's to Fritter, my snake and bug catching boy:
The best big brother in the world:
A Jedi in training:
Always ready for new opportunities to explore:
With a smile that lights up the room:
And the most creative person I know:
Happy birthday Fritter! I hope your year is filled with many graces and blessings!

Oh, happy birthday to him...I remember when he was so small. Sorry that I have fallen away from reading blogs. I miss you, and always enjoyed reading about your family.
Good to hear from you Michelle! I miss you too. I hope all is well with you and your family and that you have gotten settled into your new home.
