I cannot believe he is 13!
It really does seem like yesterday (okay maybe last year) that we were anxiously awaiting his arrival and then bringing him home from the hospital.
He has been growing from the second he was born and has not stopped.
He is now wearing a size 12 shoe and outgrew a pair of pants in a month- he never actually had a chance to wear them. That is what I get for buying for the future or even just this fall/winter.
He had a great birthday with famous pancakes and syrup for breakfast. He took cinnamon twists to church for his deacon's quorum. Hamburgers for dinner with "hamburger" cupcake sliders for dessert (a yellow cupcake bun, brownie pattie, red licorice pull apart tomato, circus peanut cheese slice, diced mike and ikes for onions and pickles, red frosting ketchup, white chocolate mayonnaise, and green coconut lettuce).
Joseph works hard, is always happy (although he has had a few teenager attitude moments lately), laughs easily and regularly, likes to joke around, is really good at cleaning up when he focuses on it, LOVES to read, plays the viola better each day. Joseph is a joy in our house and was meant to be the oldest! I am thankful for all that he teaches me and his desire to do his best always! He has trials to overcome but I know he will do great things in this life.
I love this boy!
Sporting his new tie!
"Hamburger Sliders"
Pretty much the same size foot as Dad!
All dressed up for nerd day at school- he looks great!
