Happy 7th Birthday, Luke

Happy Birthday to our sweet Lukie...who recently informed me that he'd rather just be LUKE...you know, with a silent "E."  I informed him that I gave birth to him, and he'll be LUKIE for as long as I want...but did concede that I'll just call him that at home!

Dear Luke,

Dad and I are so very proud of you!  You have a soft heart, strong mind, and a great sense of humor.  I admire so many qualities that God has given you.  This has been a big year for you.  You started 1st grade and have learned so much.  You are a fantastic reader and have such an enthusiasm for learning.  You are very smart!  You have had a lot of fun playing soccer and coach-pitch baseball.  You sing in the kids choir at church and love it.  You have made many new friends this year as well.  You are a joy to be around and I am proud of who you are!  Keep being who God made you to be!

All our love,
Mommy and Daddy




How can this boy be 7???  Time flies when you are having fun!

The Lesyks gave Luke his first skate board.  He's THRILLED.
We'll be sending them the emergency room bill!  

Luke is very musical.  He's been begging us to let him play an instrument for a long time.  Since there is no room in our home for a piano right now, we chose to give him a guitar (and lessons of course)!  Aaron is a great guitar player and Luke admires him so much.  So, I'll be looking forward to some father/son jam sessions in the future.  Here's Luke with his new guitar...he looks like a natural to me!

What a wonderful birthday! Can't believe how grown up he is getting. Can't wait to hear some jam sessions with his dad.

Jack was watching the video next to me and at one point he started giggling. So, Jack approves.

The picture of Luke holding Ben & the one of Luke being baptized pulled at my heartstrings. How adorable!
