Woo-hoo! My Asher is such a great kid, and I can't believe he just turned 7! We really could not be prouder of him. He is an excellent reader, tries to do the right thing, loves school and church, is kind to others, says the best prayers, loves to play sports of all kinds and has an amazing imagination. He is already talking about getting baptized next year, which really throws me for a loop! How can he be almost old enough for that?
For his birthday this year, it was all about LEGO's. We'll be having a 'friend' party in a couple of weeks, which will also be a LEGO party. He also brought in some doughnuts (his treat of choice for the occasion) into school for a class b-day treat at school. He had fun opening presents, blowing out candles, eating Dion's pizza (his dinner choice), and playing with family.
His favorite presents were LEGO sets (of course), an alarm clock, his LEGO watch (he never wants to take it off), NBA Jams Wii game and a sand art kit that I still haven't let him break into because it's going to be a huge mess:) The alarm clock has been a fun surprise. He listens to it when he goes to bed at night, and especially loves to listen to sports channels and games. It's even kept Beckett (who comes out of his room several times before finally calling it quits) at bay. Corey and I have both reminisced about when we received our first walkman's or alarm clocks and how empowering and cool it was to have a radio. I would venture to say the alarm clock is probably his favorite thing this Christmas/Birthday season.
Anyway, the birthday celebration continues for a little while more until his next party, so, let the extravaganza begin! Happy Birthday, Ash-man. We love you so much, buddy!
