December 29, 2002 – seven years ago today the Lord blessed me with one of the greatest gifts ever – my firstborn baby….my boy, Daniel. I can scarcely believe that he is seven years old today. How is it possible that seven years have passed in the blink of an eye? Happy birthday buddy! We love you more than words can describe!
In honor of Daniel’s seventh birthday here are seven questions he & I discussed over donuts this morning:
- What is your favorite food? – Ribs (daddy’s ribs)
- What do you want to be when you grow up? – A football player for the Dallas Cowboys
- What is your favorite memory? – Going to Paw Paw’s house (Cut n’ Shoot) because he’s got such a giant backyard (10 acres) with a fishing pond on it.
- If you could have one super power what would it be? – Force Lightening from my hands like the Emperor in Return of the Jedi
- What do like most at school, besides recess? – Our brain stretches (math stuff)
- What is the best thing about being the oldest child? – That I get to do tougher jobs & help with heavy stuff.
- What is your favorite thing to do with dad? – Go to the golf store.
Here are a couple of pictures of my boy through the years:
