Cole has changed so much from 5 to 6. He runs just a little bit faster now and is definitely stronger...for sure. Everything is a race or competition and if he looses, it's a tie. He continues to be kind hearted and thinks of others often. He is reading and writing stories at home and at school. He sets personal goals for school ("I will focus just a little more this week in school.") and strives to make him mum, dad and teachers proud. Cole is a puzzle/Lego kid and can stay on task for hours if it means he is following directions to put something together. He still struggles to eat vegetables and some fruits but I think is finally realizing (after 6long years) that his mom will continue "wait" him out at the dinner table until he eats them all. (Most nights the kitchen is cleaned, lunches are made for the next day and Ryan is finishing homework while Cole is still at the dinner table working on that last carrot!) He is silly and funny and makes us all laugh daily.
For the big birthday celebration we told Cole he could invite two friends to go and do something special. He chose his friends and our good family friends Zach and Ezra to go bowling...
go have pizza at his favorite place ("because they give us dough to play with!")
and finish the night with a sleepover.
Happy Happy birthday my dear, sweet, loving boy.
We love you.
