I was looking at my children's younger photos through my old posts and it it kind of make me sad a little bit. I miss those years when simple activities makes them so happy. As they grow older, we find it a little challenging to find activities that they really do enjoy. I wish I could stop the time so they would stay young but I can't. I am happy though of how they are becoming as individuals.
Our son turned 11 last month and I can't help but be sad and happy at the same time. He is definitely growing up . With our two children, our son is the most expressive when it comes to how he feels towards us. I know that our daughter loves us as much as our son loves us but she kind of keeps her feelings to herself.
Anyway, on his birthday, we took both of them to Flight Trampoline Park. We asked him what he wants for his birthday and this is what he wanted. After our day of fun in Pennsylvania, we came home and had some pizza and he opened his gifts.
He was very emotional after opening his gifts and reading his sister's message to him on the birthday card that she made for him. He gave each of us lots of hugs. He is the sweetest kid I know.
You can tell in his eyes that he cried, his siter was giggling when she saw him crying lol.I ordered him this personalized mugs with a special dedication to his eleventh birthday. Included in it are some chocolates.
He loved the cars that we got him. He has a collection of cars but they are small, so he was very happy of these bigger ones. I found them online. My plan was to buy eleven of them of they cost too much lol. I only bought the Lamborghini Veneno, McLaren P1, Yellow - Kinsmart 5393D - 1/36 Scale Diecast Model Toy Car, and the New style 1:32 Bugatti Veyron Alloy Diecast car model collection light and sound in red. HIs sister also got him a collectible car.
His Ate made him this card and he loved it.
Here's a video of him opening the gifts.
It looks like he had a great birthday. I love all the hugs and happiness going on in these pictures. That's what birthdays are all about.
