Bo turns 5!
Well a little over a week ago Bo turned 5!!! I still have a hard time saying that he’s 5. 5 is a BIG year…it marks the beginning of kindergarten in the fall, no more preschool, no more church setting school lessons, the opportunity to ride the school bus…eeek!!! Bo still asks every day if he’s big enough to ride the school bus, not sure how I’ll handle that when the time comes. We are starting a whole new phase of his little life, very bittersweet.
On his actual birthday we were in Greenville with Jarrod’s family. Bo loved waking up on his birthday at Lily and Josie’s house!! He absolutely adores his cousins so this was perfect! Aunt Kim had mini sweet rolls, which was definitely a treat for us. Then he opened presents!! We had already given him his present the Saturday before..he got a big boy bike! He loves it! Since he got that before his birthday we had to have something else for him to open so after a long search for the bike (long story) we made another trip back to toys r us to get him a “real” Star Wars Light Saber, yep he thinks it’s real! He also got a Star Wars action figure. He’s really getting into Star Wars, which daddy loves…mom, well I’m just glad God gave me a girl :)
We all came back home that afternoon where we had a surprise waiting for him. My sweet friend Jasmin helped me get balloons for the mailbox. What she didn’t tell me is that they also made Bo a Happy Birthday Banner for the yard! We absolutely, positively have the most amazing friends! Everyone has been so wonderful offering to help us out, help with kids, etc… with all that we’ve had going on with Jarrod’s dad. Jarrod has spent most of the past 3 weeks in Greenville and our friends have made that much easier on us. A huge thank you to everyone!!! Unfortunately it was super windy here on his birthday so the big 5 balloon popped and the sign split in two, but he still loved it!! He felt so special which is exactly what we wanted! We also made homemade pizzas that night, his of course being an angry bird and we had a small cake to celebrate. He had a great day…lots of fun!
This is from when I took treats for his class party!
