Gabe turned 6!

On June 29th Gabe turned 6!  On July 9th he was diagnosed with mono and staph infection in his throat.  For the first couple of days he was a very sick boy who slept watched T.V. and barely ate.  We even had to postpone his birthday party.  His party with friends was held on August 4th at Quarry Hill Nature Center.  He went on a cave hike with some of his friends (and his sisters) and enjoyed Samurai Power Ranger cake.

Gabe is such a  delightful inquisitive boy who makes us laugh loud and often.  He handles being the only Prince in house full of Princesses very well.  He is unusually self aware and introspective for someone only 6 years old.   He is super loving and kind and we often say he will make someone a great husband some day.

Gabe's imagination and explanations for things are wonderful.  I almost don't want him to grow up because his world is SO much more fun that the real world.  I have had so much fun enjoying the summer with him.  He tells me several times a day how much he loves me.  Who wouldn't want to hear that?  We are so blessed that 6 years ago this little boy joined the world.  Our lives would not be the same without our Gabe.
