Max is 5. Today! He is so big.

Okay, Max has decided that there are about a million things that he can't do anymore, now that he's 5. It's upsetting for a mom who doesn't like things to change. For example, we still have him put a big bib that Grandma Cheney made on when he's eating something super messy like soup, beans, ketchup. Well, tonight he looked over to me and said, "I shouldn't be wearing a bib anymore now that I'm 5." We also put a diaper on him at night just to be safe since he climbs into bed with us sometime during each night, and we don't want to get peed on. Well, he's put a stop to that. If he stops coming into our room, I'm going to cry. This is all TOO much all at the same time for little old Mom. Today we had our very own family party where Max got to do, eat, decide everything he wanted today. We are bringing treats to his school on Monday and then he is having a party at the Brighton McDonalds' playland next Friday. Max is such a sweet, thoughtful, special boy. He is such a blessing to me personally and to our family. Thank you Heavenly Father for MAX!!!
