Seven!

Yesterday, our baby turned seven. It's hard to believe he is seven already. Just a little over 2 years ago, we first learned of our son half way around the world. At the time, he was four, almost five, and looked little in his pictures. Now, he has grown...45 inches...only one more inch to go to be able to ride the Iron Dragon at Cedar Point this summer. He's gained a few pounds. He's learned a whole new language and is reading. But what he has gained the most is the unconditional love of a family...the same goes for us....we have gained the unconditional love of this amazing little boy.
We celebrated with a few boys too many over in the afternoon...no, they were fine. Just noisy! And then the family came over last night for a celebration. After church today, we journeyed to Chuck E Cheese with friends for the ultimate American experience. What a weekend.

"Do I look 7?"

The spider gift from the sisters...that thing is creepy! His "fighting" face in his new Lego Star Wars pjs.

His new Michigan shirt. No, Daddy, die-hard Ohio State fan did not buy this. Mommy did. Jay-R is now the only one in the family to sport the blue. Should make for a fun Ohio State Michigan party in a few weeks!
