1. Happy Birthday to him!

[GreenPartyVoter]

2. Thanks. :^) He had a pretty good one. The NBA all-star game was tonight

and he has turned into a real b-ball fan so that was pretty thrilling for him. Of course he had to go to bed at half-time but lucky for him we have TiVo. *g*

3. It feels as though it goes so fast, doesn't it?

Mine will be eight also, next month. Hard to believe. I enjoy the age, though.

[GreenPartyVoter]

4. I have enjoyed every age the boys have been but I am really missing

the ones they have finished because I know they will never come again. :(

5. What a sweet little baby face and perfectly bald head!

:party: Happy Birthday BabyGPV! and big commiserating hugs to mama! :hug:

My baby will be 8 in August...and the college stuff just started coming in for my oldest...:cry:

[GreenPartyVoter]

9. College? Eeek! I am trying not to even think about high school at

this point, though I know it will come up sooner than I think.

(And yes, we called him Gumball for the longest time. *lol*)

6. What a sweetheart

Happy Birthday to him. :party:

[GreenPartyVoter]

10. Thanks. :^) He will be taking a friend out for mini bowling next week. It

is the first year he hasn't wanted a party with his whole class.

7. My baby boy

will be 18 in March. Holy shit! :D

[GreenPartyVoter]

11. And yet you just brought him home from the hospital a few months ago? *g*

That's how I feel some days.

8. Happy birthday to him!

What a cute photo :D

[GreenPartyVoter]

12. It is my all-time favorite baby pic of him. He _always_ munched on his

wrist like that. We used to call him "eat-the-hand-boy" because of it. *l*

13. My eldest turned nine ...

I kept thinking "He's already half way to leaving us!!" :cry: :scared:

He's such a wonderful kid (and so is his little sister). We're so lucky.

Anyway, the Harry Chapin lyrics "My son arrived just the other day ... " seem to apply. *sigh* I wish I could put time on pause ...

[GreenPartyVoter]

14. I keep thinking the same thing.. counting down to graduation. Pause would

be nice but so would fast forward, at least to get past the little temper tantrums and broken hearts along the way. *l*

[Arugula Latte]

16. Yeah, exactly.

My kids are out of school for several days (President's Day + teacher prep. days or something) and it would be nice to fast forward over the little screaming fits and squabbles ... But, for the most part, they're playing together nicely.

[tigereye]

15. nice!

they grow up fast don't they? Mine will be 10 in April.

[GreenPartyVoter]

17. Thanks. I keep trying to snuggle him but he's having none of it

Good thing I have cats to baby when the boys feel too big!

[tigereye]

18. my son wanted to sit with me on the couch last night

I think he felt bad for me since I have been sick....

It was a pleasant surprise.

22. You have been sick Tiger?

I wish you healing.
Sincerely, Lindy

[tigereye]

23. thanks

25. Parenting is a bittersweet journey, isn't it?

It's a trip watching them grow, change and age.

My oldest kid is also a boy and he's 12 now, amazingly. The teenage years are looming.... :scared:

Happy Birthday to the little guy! He will be an adult before you can believe it!
