I cannot believe this guy turned SIX today!
His
birthday dinner request was chicken hearts.
I
am thankful to be released from the hospital in order to help celebrate with
him, although I didn’t feel like eating any chicken hearts.
We
tried to try to find a bike for Micah for his birthday. After zero success, a Paraguayan told us that
it’s a seasonal item. Who knew? We’ll keep checking and hopefully he will
have a new bike before we leave the city.
Micah
bought a hamster with his birthday money.
His name is Lucky.
In
the evening of his birthday Micah told me that he didn’t think he was really
six. When I asked his why, he said, “If
I am six, then why do I still suck my thumb?”
Good question. Micah did stop the
habit a couple months back, but began again when we moved into our new house. We’ve been pressuring him to stop by his
birthday. He told us in the days leading
up, “I have decided that I might maybe possible stop on my 6th
birthday.”
Around
here, Micah is probably best known for his fashion. Let’s see...there were the rain boots he wore
every single day for 2 years and now that he has out grown them, it’s a real
struggle to get him to wear any shoes. A
bathing suit and no shirt have been his preferred “outfit” for a year and a
half now. This kids needs to be a beach
bum in California! Every now and then
(if we’re going out and we require actual clothes), he will put on a skeleton
costume or and army costume. What can I
say? He’s six.
