Yup, the boy's 9...the last of the single digit years for our amazing oldest son, Turner Reese. It really does seem like just yesterday that the little guy was making his grand entrance into this world and now we are celebrating 9 great years of memories with him. There are so many stories that revolve around this unique creation that God has entrusted us with and we look forward to many more. He is definitely a blessing and we are so thankful for ALL he adds to our lives and the lives of all those he encounters.
As for the big birthday, well, I think he racked up. I don't think I made out as well as he did on my 9th birthday. His loot included a new bike complete with a really loud horn that was hand picked by none other than his little brother. He also got a new Life-Is-Good shirt, a "Swiss Army Knife" (he just recently earned his 'Whittlin Chip' through Cub Scouts so he can safely carry a knife), an alarm for his bedroom to warn him of intruders (that would be his little sister) and a really fun dinner at a local Japanese Steakhouse around the Hibachi. Click here to watch the Qik Video that I streamed from phone while we watched the Japanese Chef entertain us all. By the way, did you know you can stream video live from your phone to the web for free and it's actually decent in quality and easy to do? Check out Qik for more info. From his point of view and mine, I believe he had a great birthday and is well on his way to another great year where I can only imagine what YouTube video this funny kid will choose to memorize next (ever seen Bon Qui Qui? Well, Turner can re-enact the whole thing!).
