another birthday for the busy b

Where does the time go?  Seriously.  Our busy "b" is now not only a Kindergartner, but a 6 year old one at that.  I'm not sure what it is about a child's Kindergarten year, but it seems that they just grow up so much.  Beckham is definitely growing up.  He is growing into the little leader that God has made him to be.  He has such an amazing and energetic spirit, and his passion for life is unbelievable.  He has a smile that can light up a room and a heart that is bigger than his lean, little body.  He blesses our family in so many ways.  So today we celebrate our busy little "b" who is not so little anymore.

Beckham was down to business this morning.  He wanted to start his birthday off right and head straight to the gift!  The other "b's" were eager to celebrate with him and were excited to see what his birthday morning present was too.  Berkley instructed him to open his card first.

Beckham LOVES cards that sing so he really enjoyed listening to his card over and over again!

But it wasn't long and he remembered he had a gift to open.  He was just a little excited.

And very thankful too.  So sweet.

Breakfast was up next, and it was the birthday boy's choice.  He requested breakfast burritos from La  Popular.

But of course, before we could eat, we had to sing Happy Birthday.  And Beckham had some birthday wishes to make!

My sweet SIX year old boy!

After school Beckham had a surprise visitor.  Sweet cousin Dane arrived with some birthday balloons for Beckham.

This birthday boy was feeling pretty special indeed.

That night the birthday boy got to pick a favorite spot to eat dinner.  Beckham picked Rosa's.  We were a little surprised until we realized it was a strategic pick indeed.  Once we finished dinner, he pointed out how close we were to Coldstone.  So, of course, we headed across the street to finish off our celebration.  The boys had a table all to themselves.

Ice cream was definitely the perfect end to such a special day celebrating such an amazing little guy.
