Happy birthday sweet little boy of mine!
These four years have flown by! My baby is long gone and this handsome smart sweet boy has taken his place. I am so blessed to be the mother of these incredible young people. Happy birthday Caden! I love you!
We had a fun day celebrating Caden's birthday. We used many of the coupons the kids won from the library reading contest. We ate for free at chick filet and then went to the ceramic paint studio in Norco. Not free but the coupons made it affordable. We all had a great time painting. We even painted a small nativity! We were there for three hours!
We also used our coupons for Sizzler! Yum! (At least the kids thought it was delicious.)
Caden is pretty blessed himself! His three older siblings are so good to him! They did everything they could on his birthday to make his day special. Lila gave him piggy back rides until I thought she would fall over. Emma helped him and waited for him when he fell behind. David played with him and taught him new games. They even spent their own hard earned money buying him gifts. Caden was delighted with his birthday attention. Once later in the afternoon he started to cry and pout about something silly. This warranted a stern rebuke from me. His big brother and sisters reminded me in sweet voices, "But mom, it is his birthday!" Caden liked this way of thinking. He stuck out his bottom lip and said dramatically, "MOM, you ruined my birthday!" Ha! Too bad. I didn't let myself laugh and told him seriously, "If you aren't nice, I won't let you have a birthday." He apologized quickly and we went back to having fun. I think if he pulled tricks like that often, it would be quite annoying. But he is so happy and sweet. He makes us laugh every day.
