Clay turned 6 today! He was glad it finally got here. He was not happy about Chloe's birthday being before his. I tried to explain that only God controlled when you were born, but I am not sure he really cares :-) He was up by 5:30 this morning (his usual waking time) and we were ready for school by 7:00. It rained here today and the trees were just beautiful colors as we drove to school. We had a party with cupcakes, gummy snacks, chips and KoolAid at snack time today. His class sang Happy Birthday to him while he wore his "Birthday Hat". We checked out of school 30 minutes early and came home. It had stopped raining and the kids were just begging to get outside and play. Chloe decided to rake leaves while Clay played soldier man with the small broom!! It was quite the thing to watch. We also decorated a picture of "Tom the Turkey" to disguise him for Thanksgiving - we didn't want him to be eaten! Chloe made her turkey a farmer and Clay made his turkey a soldier. I have to admit. Pretty creative kids have I! We went roller skating for their birthdays tonight. All of the kids (James, Roman, Matthew, Clay and Chloe) and I ate at Pizza Hut before going skating. Johney and Angela joined us, along with Heather, Chris, Hunter and Megan to skate. All I can say is that it has been a LONG time since I have skated......I may not be able to get out of bed to work tomorow!!! I love my babies and I still have a hard time believing that they are getting so big. The time of motherhood flies by when you aren't looking.
