Luke turned 8 last Friday. Now, birthdays are a big deal in general, but turning 8 is a really big deal, because that means Luke will get baptized in a couple of weeks! We're so excited!
Plus, this was an unforgettable birthday since we were out of town with some of our friends, so we had quite a celebration! Complete with party hats and doughnuts on the beach.
(Yep ... Emery is wearing a sweet party hat while wakeboarding!)
I adore Luke. And here are, yes, eight reasons why ...
1) Not only is he my youngest, so he will forever hold the all-important title of "my baby," but he is seriously one of the sweetest boys on the planet.
2) He has the cutest two front teeth I've ever seen.
3) He's a total peacemaker.4) He's not a picky eater and will try just about anything. In fact, he actually likes most of the things I make (just not chicken enchiladas)!
5) He has THE BEST handwriting. I love to see how perfectly he writes his letters. Seriously, check this out ...
6) He's usually a great helper and he'll sometimes ask me if he can do a little work to earn some extra money.
7) Not only is Luke an awesome student, but he goes the extra mile by drawing pictures on and decorating his spelling tests ...
How cute is that?!
8) Luke is such a happy kid and so much fun to be around!
Happy Birthday, Luke! I love you tons and I'm so lucky to be your Mom!!
He does have great hand writing, that is very impressive. Happy Birthday Luke. We sure miss you, you were a lot of fun to teach in Primary.
