Happy Birthday Caleb!


Caleb turned eight today! It was a low key day since his birthday fell in the middle of the week. We did take cupcakes to school and his classmates sang to him.

Caleb is our adventurer! He has no fear in him whatsoever. He is always up for pretty much anything (except school - ha. ha). Out of all of the boys he physically looks the most like Craig with his dark hair and brown eyes. He is very compassionate and friendly. He has no problem making friends and enjoys being in a group of kids. He tends to become discouraged easily and doesn't have a lot of confidence but we are working on those ares! We named him Caleb after Caleb in the Bible where it says in Numbers that Caleb had a different spirit than them all. (The story of Caleb & Joshua spying out the land and coming back with a good report). Caleb does have a different spirit and I can not wait to see all that God does through and with him. I asked him on the way home from school if he felt older today and he said not really but that being 8 means he gets to do a lot more things than he could at 7. I said oh really, like what? He replied like pack my own lunch and put whatever I want into it - ha. ha. He is really looking forward to playing flag football and to his birthday party next weekend!
