Today is Daniel's 6th Birthday! It has been extra special because we all got to stay home because of the snow that closed schools and work. I think Daniel will always remember that we had a snow day on his sixth birthday -- it's unlikely to happen again!
Daniel is such a sweet 6 year old, we are so blessed to have him as our son. He is loving, clever, creative, fun, imaginative, confident, obedient (most of the time!), and overall is a joyful boy. Just a few days before his 6th birthday, he lost his first tooth from the lower center. What a special milestone! He was so excited and the tooth fairy (he knows it's me!) visited him during his sleep!
This past Saturday we celebrated his birthday at BounceU with different friends: from his Kindergarten class, from his pre-K class, from our old neighborhood, from our new neighborhood, and from our church. Daniel is so blessed to have so many friends! And his Kindergarten teacher, Ms. Graham, was also there! Here are some of the photos of the celebration on Saturday:

ReplyDeleteMy dearest Daniel,
ReplyDeleteCONGRATULATIONS for the beautiful Birthday celebration that you had last week! How wonderful was for your Vozinha and Vovô Stephen to read this page in the blog where mamãe & papai wrote about you with so much love and expectations for your future. We loved to see you very happy playing with many friends. We could see that you welcomed then very well. Praise the Lord for having you as our special boy " um netinho tão lindo e tão educadinho". We are looking forward to seeing and hugging you soon. Kisses and hugs from us still in Grussaí, Brazil.
