Happy Birthday Nicholas

Today is my son Nicholas' 8th birthday :) at times I believe he thinks he's at least 23 years old..... Every time one of my kids has a birthday I get a little sad :( It seems like the older they get they don't need me as much... Nicholas was your classic example of a "momma's boy". He's my third child and came at a time when it was just the two of us at home so we became buddies. Everyday I see him letting go a little more and as happy as I am to watch him grow, I can't help but feel sad.

For his birthday dinner he chose pizza hut and instead of cake he wanted krispy kreme donuts... that absolutely devastated my 4 year old because for birthdays you should always have cake!!!

  1. love his choice of meals and dessert. After all, you get to eat what you want on your birthday. My boys are 23 and 24. I miss them a lot. I am now watching my 14 yo daughter grow right before my eyes,

  2. How fun to have Krispy Kremes! He's certainly a precious little guy. It's so hard to watch them grow up, but its even more amazing when they do and you look back and say.. "I was part of that and I'm so proud of the young man he's become". You'll always be his #1.

  3. Happy Birthday Nicholas. It makes me sad too knowing my boys are growing up and will one day fly the coup. I just hope they land close by. I like his choice in cakes;)
