Seven tomorrow

When he really likes something, he takes the time to draw and color a picture of it, like a recent "Tom and Jerry" sketch he did.

A scrap of paper and a pencil is a game - tic tac toe, hangman, a maze, "how are these two monsters different."

He brought home an extra penguin cutout from school to do with Kate. He made her a Santa note with a happy Santa in the picture.

We throw the football.around the backyard, and he can really throw, but his favorite part is running back kickoffs, and the big smile when he knows I can't catch him.

He loves the same Encyclopedia Brown books I loved when I was a kid.

I could write for hours, but it's his birthday tomorrow and I need some rest.
