This was last year...great friends and lots of fun...
But now, I've got this problem...
...he went to college and I can't make him his birthday breakfast on the "You are special today" plate...
You see, October is Jon's month. He turned 19, oh my, on the 21st. The girls and Daniel got to go to Corvallis to help him celebrate...I had a very sick puppy to care for.
The first birthday I got to help him celebrate, his dad and I with some dear friends took him to Disneyland for the first time. He was turning 5. I didn't get to be with him for his day as I still lived in L.A., but I sent some gifts including a wonderful soccer, football, basketball set just the right size for a 5-year-old guy. By the time he was 6, I was there and making breakfast, hosting parties and creating fun birthday cakes. I think the Zorro birthday and maybe the Boot Camp birthday were my favorites...so fun.
He got his new, red Schwinn when he turned 10...joy!
By the time he was in his teens, the cakes turned into brownies
or cobblers like this one below for his 17th.
Happy Birthday Jon. You have my heart and I love you.
Oh, how they grow ...
