MAX IS 5!!

My baby is 5! That is hard to swallow! I told him he could not turn 5, that he had to stay little. He started to cry cuz you have to be 5 to go to Kindergarten. So I let him turn 5, but I regret it!!!! The day after his birthday we were walking into the bank. I went to grab his hand and he pulled it away saying "Mom, I don't need you to hold my hand, I'm 5!" I wanted to cry!

He got a bike for his birthday and now all he wants to do is ride it! Cute boy!

Funny Max story...
One morning he came out groggy from his bed to the kitchen. He asked "Mom is it a T-ball day?" He has a label for each day, school day, church day, T-ball day. Anyway, I told him no it was a church day. He said in all seriousness, "I hate church!" Jack hearing this, called him to come into the family room. He tried to talk to him about all the good things about church, Primary, his teacher, singing time, etc. To all of this he replied the same, "I hate it!" None of my kids have ever come out and said that, so I was a little upset. Then Jack decided to change the subject a little and asked Max, "Who do you love most in all the world?" Max replied, "MOM, I love Mom most!" I'm not sure where he was going with this, but then Jack asked, "What about Dad?" Max thought for a second and said "I love you more than church!!!" I started to laugh so hard I cried!!
Out of the mouths of babes!!!!!!

We all love that little boy! He brings such joy to our family! He's a great dancer too! Ask him to show you his moves sometime! :)

Just wait til that baby gets baptized...at least he's smart enough to love his mommy most. Had my heartbreaking moment when Jimmy didn't give me a hug before he got into the car for baseball carpool. Can't really blame him(: Miss you guys!!

Wow, 5. I couldn't believe how big all your kids have gotten at Johnny's reception. You're a beautiful family. My dad couldn't stop talking about how much he loves you. :)
