Let me first back up to Tuesday when we had a surprise birthday lunch at Yaya's house! Luke COULD NOT believe that it was all for him. He was SO precious. We had pizza, juice boxes, blue and orange balloons, some of our favorite people and lots of laughs and love and presents!
The day started with birthday pancakes, with whipped cream and strawberries. Luke had his fill and then they were off to explore the woods at the lake.
Later all the boys enjoyed hitting golf balls into the lake, a little baseball, a lot of Luke's present from Landon which is a neat little contraption that supposedly can soar almost 200 yards!
It was SO fun and even more fun to watch!
We had homemade pizza for dinner and Luke had an extra special "6" for his pizza then we sang Happy Birthday to an "L" shaped yummy Chocolate Chip cookie!!
We've had lots of fun with these glasses the last few days. I didn't post all the pictures because I love my family and don't want to completely embarrass them, but just for fun....... :)
He was so thankful for all of his gifts and we can't wait to play with him tomorrow!!
The night ended with me putting Turbo to bed and singing him Happy Birthday in his ear one last time. I couldn't help but cry when I was praying with him and then thankfully daddy swooped in and had to finish the prayer. I am so thankful for my sweet boy. Luke, you have the biggest heart and it is overflowing with love for everyone. You are always the first to give a hug and so forgiving. You laughter is infectious and your big brown eyes can melt my heart right away in the blink of an eye. I hope you never lose you love of life, love of learning and eagerness and curiosity about all things - especially the Lord. Daddy and I love when you ask questions like these and about the Lord and how He does all things because we know when you ask, you will listen and absorb and remember every single word. We better make sure we have our facts and story right now shouldn't we?!
Happy 6th Birthday Luke!!!!!!!!! You look like you even grew 6 cm maybe?? or are you 60 today?? Brown thinks you are : )
Thank you to everyone for the emails, cards, gifts, text's, calls, love, hugs and kisses for Turbo!!
We love you so much my sweet angel and I am so deeply grateful for every single hair on your head. I love you past the moon, stars, road and cars and the new road ; )
Such a sweet post, Elaine. I can't believe he's six. Where does the time go?! I vividly remember that sweet day he was born. Love to Luke from all of us!
