Happy Birthday Devin!


Today is my Devins 7th birthday, so I want to share some facts about Devin and reasons why he is so special.

  1. Devin is my first born. He is a great big brother, always taking care of Tanner and Ellie.
  2. Devin loves horses and wants to be a cowboy like his grandpa. He is saving all his money to buy a horse when he turns 12. (Why 12? no idea.)
  3. Devin has been 3 almost 8, 4 almost 8, 5 almost 8, 6 almost 8, and now is 7 almost 8. Because he can't wait to be in cub scouts.
  4. Devin loves people, where ever we go he finds other kids to play with. He is the first one to welcome a new neighbor or wave at a stranger. (We'll have to watch that one.)
  5. Devin is very sensitive, he is my big tough guy who will still come and sit on my lap, sleeps with his special blanket, and is very concerned if ever I am not felling good. He also prefers to sleep with Tanner because he doesn't like to be alone.
  6. He learns words to songs very easily, he only has to hear something a couple of times to have it memorized. He recognizes music pieces as well, he rememberes what movies the music belongs to.
  7. Devin will start 1st grade this fall and can hardly wait.
  8. He loves to play ball (any kind). He is in t-ball now,but can't wait to be in coach pitch next year. He also enjoys soccer and would love for mom to let him play football. He is fearless in the water and put himself in level 3 swimming lessons last year so he could jump of the high dive.
  9. Devins favorite color: red. food: hamburgers and mac'n'cheese. game: chess with dad (dad makes him follow the rules) and with Hayden (he makes up the rules with Hayden). thing to do: watch movies, doesn't have a favorite likes them all. church song: When Jesus Christ was Baptized other song: You Had a Bad Day (dad taught him that one) and Need More Hours (from Meet the Robinsons).
