the heart of (an almost) 8 year old...

it doesn't seem right... how can my baby boy be turning 8 in about a month... how did he grow up and get to be so big right before my very eyes... why it is that the days seem so long but the years seem so short...

he is hard headed while learning life lessons...just not always the easy way...

...my little question machine...inquisitive about all things...

... he is my talker... he has lots of say...

...an analytical thinker... always finding a way...

...athletic...great sportsmanship...yet competitive...

... a leader in the classroom and on the field...

...lover of math... reading not so much...

...has a huge heart... concerned about others...

...outgoing...never met a stranger...

...my little preacher man...

...his prayers can give most preachers a run for their money...

...would eat meatloaf, mashed potatoes, and rolls for every meal...

... can cook a mean waffle and a great pancake flipper...

...water drinker... passes on all soft drinks... but lover of sweet tea...

...chooses balls and bikes over trains and action figures...

...sports fanatic... especially all things crimson tide...

...always willing to lend a helping hand... this is the heart of my seven (almost 8 year old)
