Coley Bear turned 6 today.
Tim and I chatted a bit about the day he was born...how different things are now....we have lost loved ones...we have gained new loved ones...our own and extended...
You blink and your monkey goes from a toddling 2 year old..To a 6 year old little man...
I sent a little note in his lunch today...reminding him that at 11:30 he was officially 6 and that we loved him...simple things like that note made me smile. Nothing like your child's birthday to make you realize just how lucky you are to even be a mom.
Hockey, Nintendo DS, The Wii, Math, Reading Star Wars books consume his life..so Tim and I decided to get him a magic set! He spent the evening learning new tricks and impressing the family...he is one funny kid.
Tim's mom made a great cake which looked exactly like his hockey jersey....complete with his name...only grandma's have that kind of patience to make black icing!
We dined on sushi and homemade pizza..special requests from the birthday boy....we opened gifts..we laughed....
And now I sit here, writing this post, listening to my 6 year old as he sings to himself in his bed...
Happy birthday to me...Happy Birthday to me...
Bonne Fete a moi...Bonne Fete a moi
Ok, who taught him the french version?
Happy Birthday Cole.
