Matthew is turning 10










Matthew is turning 10 tomorrow!! He has always been such an active kid....when he was so little I'm sure many people remember how many times he would run from me, I'm sure more than one person witnessed me running down the street after him!...he was always such a wanderer. I can remember Judith and Julie bringing him to my door on two separate occasions after they found him outside sitting on Aaron's motorcycle wearing only a diaper. I had no idea he was even outside!! We found out he could get the sliding glass door open, luckily they sell child locks for them. As he has grown up he continues to always want to be on the run. He loves to ripstick and has even warn out a set of wheels since Christmas! He loves to build things too. He loves bionicles, legos and knex. The other day he came with me to Joe and Hannah's gymnastics class and one of the kid's grandmas was there and she told me she had a very nice conversation with him....he loves to talk and will talk to anyone who would like to listen. He loves our animals, especially Molly. He loves to take her on walks and she loves to take him on walks too...He is such a loving boy and I'm just so glad he's in our family. Happy happy birthday Matthew!!

Wow- How time flies. Happy Birthday Matthew. He sounds like so much fun. He reminds me a lot of Jackson, not only looks but his personality sounds very similar.

Can't believe how quickly our children are growing. I always liked Mathew's spiritedness. It's gonna really take him far in life, and hey, the running was good excercise. Right?

Can that really be the little red-headed baby? I'll never forget the diaper-wearing-bike-riding kid. Happy Birthday!
