Ben is Seven!

My Ben turned seven in October! I am still in denial that he is growing up way too fast!

 My Ben never sits still.  He is in constant motion.  He is always skipping and hopping where ever he is going.

Ben has a great love for life!  His excitement, laughter, and humor are contagious.  

Ben's best friend is still his brother. Ben tries the best to be just like his brother. These two brothers love to wrestle and play with each other.  Ben and Hyrum also enjoy looking at their football cards together.

Ben  has a love for sports. He performs quite well in almost everything that he tries.  Ben is a very fast runner.  Ben was the fastest 1st grade boy in the whole school. Ben is competitive and wants to come in first.

I absolutely love his big brown eyes and his freckles.  I think Ben looks so handsome in his glasses.

Ben has a tender nature. He doesn't like it when he gets in trouble or when things don't go his way.

Ben is everyone's friend. Ben talks to everyone...even strangers.

Ben is loves to play with Lucy and Lucy loves to play with Ben.  They giggle and laugh together.

Ben is very smart.  He is a reading phenomenon. He is reading way above his reading level.  He also does very well in all the other areas.

We are blessed to have this funny, handsome, smart, friendly boy in our house.  We love our Ben!
