birthday round up - now he is 6!

Now We Are Six

When I was one
I had just begun
When I was two
I was nearly new
When I was three
I was hardly me
When I was four
I was not much more
When I was five
I was just alive
But now I am six,
I'm as clever as clever;
so I think I'll be six now
for ever and ever.

~A.A. Milne

Six fits I think. Yes, it does. He's definitely six. In the car the other day, I over heard him telling Havah that he already knows what a rhombus is, "because, I'm taller than most boys who are six. Plus, I'm already six." That is some reasoning, Henry. Yep. He's definitely six. (Should I mention that he later asked her to explain to him about a rhombus?)

For his birthday we spent a night at the Great Wolf Lodge. It really is as fun as the commercials make it sound! I'm not sure what was more fun...the water slides or playing Magi Quest.

Later in the week, our family came over for a birthday party. I'm loving this picture of Henry, as he contemplates his birthday wish.

We also played some pretty silly games. (Did I mention that Princess Leia stopped by?)

The two dare devils in the family (that thing is dumping 1000 gallons of water!)
