Happy 8th Birthday Ezra

Happy Birthday to my baby (will I say that every year?  probably!).  Ezra is a fun, creative, smart, focused, silly, loving and snuggly guy.  He is really all these things rolled up into one.  At his most recent parent teachers conference, his teachers said it is amazing how in the hallway and at recess he is right in the thick of things with his friends, leading in silliness and fun - but that when he come in to class, he tunes it out and is a serious student.  He has loved getting homework this year and enjoying his birthday present - his new desk!  Ezra is still playing his guitar and started taking hip hop dance class which he has been loving.  Ezra loves spending time with his friends and family.  His new favorite pass time is reading.  Over the last two months he has read the entire Diary of a Wimpy kid series - 11 books!  We love you with all our heart!

Happy 10th birthday Justin!!!!

Double digits!!!!  Happy birthday to our Justin.  I cannot believe how much you have grown and matured in the last year.  You finished up strong as the oldest kid in the lower school.  You went bravely to your first summer at sleepaway camp without a tear.  You made a ton of new friends and had a blast!  During your transition to the upper school you have made new friends and are trying new things (circus club!  jcc play!) but also staying interested in things you have loved for a while.  You are loving the trumpet and you still love to spend hours sketching amazingly intricate drawings and coming up with new stories.  You are inspired by everything around you.  A new movie, a play or some story we read you.  You bring it to life with new costumes and imaginative play with your brothers.  Your creativity and passion are inspiring.  You are still our sweet Justin.  You are always the first to ask how our day was or to offer to share with a friend.  We love you with all our heart and wish you the happiest of birthdays!
