7 Years

Bryson today is your 7th birthday and I wonder how it's even possible.  Where has the time gone, how did we get here.  7 years has gone by so quickly and you have changed so much.  You amaze your father and I everyday. 

• You are reading at a second grade level.
• You say that your school work is too easy.
• You have told me to tell the teacher to give you harder work.
• You love Star Wars and Bakugan guys.
• You still love your DS and have way to many games for it.
• You take such good care of your little brothers, and they love you so much.
• You love to carry Chase around.  When you get home from school you always say how much you have missed him.
• You love chocolate and could eat it all day long.  Everything has to be chocolate: ice cream, cake, candy, doughnuts, muffins, pancakes, I mean everything.
• You were the man of the house for 9 months, while your daddy was fighting the war in Afghanistan.
• You lost four teeth this past year.
• Your teacher wrote a note to me that said your handwriting is IMPRESSIVE but that you were a PERFECTIONIST.  I am not sure if that's a bad thing or not.
• Your best friend is Carter.
• In the last 6 years of your life you have lived in New Mexico, Texas, Arizona, North Carolina and now Japan.  You are officially a world traveler.
• At your school checkup last month you were 49 inches and 52 lbs.  
• Your vision is 20/15 on both eyes.

As usual I am sure I am missing many more items.  You have been a blessing to both your father and I and we are so happy that you joined our family that Tuesday night at 10:48pm in Las Cruces, New Mexico weighing in at 6.15 lbs and 20 inches.  You have grown so much and we love you.
