Our dear sweet but sassy Ben turns 12 today!
He has now been home with us for 6 years, as long as he was in the orphanage.
Amazing to see the progress he has made in learning to be a son, brother, student, and friend.
This boy is quite a kid!
Today his birthday will include going camping with friends, picking out his own cake on the way to the campground, and enjoying cake and presents with our friends tonight!
Our last year before he turns into a teenager...
Birthday boy getting ready for his Culver’s bday meal on the way to camping. We were suppose to get pizza takeout for the campsite, but we are about 3 hours behind schedule😕. Truck needed to be looked at today, and it took longer than we hoped. Oh well, cake and presents will still happen at the campsite so that’s good!
Birthday boy getting ready to blow out his candles and eat cake. Unfortunately, this wasn't the best birthday ever for our Ben. He was sick with an eye infection and then the next morning he woke up with a bad cold. So hindsight, he shouldn't have been blowing on his cake... And, he didn't like his cake because it didn't have frosting, just a sugar glaze. So he refused to eat it. The man knows what he wants, I guess!
He did, fortunately, enjoy his present: a new 3 wheel scooter that works up to 110 lbs!
Jonah can maneuver on it pretty good too!
