river is 5.

the boy who made me a mama.  so tender.  so easy-going.  makes a friend wherever we go.  karate fights with his little sisters and lets them knock him down.  has always been my early bird.  still loves curious george.  begged to go to church this morning.  loves routine.  loves to wrestle his daddy and cuddle his mama.  we love this brave son of ours.

 i love these next few photos.  the girls were jumping up and down cheering for him.  so sweet.
