6 years old -- Unbelievable!

No school today because of the snow and ice, so Sophie and Keegan spent the night last night.  I woke early and was just sitting in the silence when I heard a loud yell, "It's my birthday!"

And so it is.  It is dang near impossible for me to think that Keegan is six today. It seems like he was just born last week. He is spunky and precious and so tender hearted.  You never have to actually get onto him because just a look will bring on his tears of remorse.   He is probably THE most thoughtful kid I've even known.  He always thinks of others. It's hard to just give him something (like a cookie), because he wants one for every person in his family.  So I know if it's about time for him to go home and I'm passing out a cookie, I might as well bag up 3 to go.  He's always been that way.

Today, I took him, Sophie, Wesley and Keegan's buddy, Judah to see the movie Frozen and then to Chuck E. Cheese for pizza and games. Amanda and Benjamin joined us for lunch. 

 
 
 
 
All was going great and then.......boink.  Keegan whopped the snot out of his head and he was ready to come home.  We dropped Judah off and I took him to get some ice cream before dropping him off at home.  He's gonna have quite a bruise to remind him of this birthday.  I hope he always remembers how very, very much he is loved.
