Happy 6th Birthday Joey

Behold, children are a heritage from the Lord, the fruit of the womb, a reward. Like arrows in the hand of a warrior are the children of one's youth. Blessed is the man who fills his quiver with them! He shall not be put to shame when he speaks with his enemies in the gate.
Psalms 127: 3-5

Happy 6th Birthday Joseph Benedict Callon.

In a few short years you have grown from a tiny baby in my arms to a bright, young boy.
You are too smart for your age and yet you possess an innocence only a young man could have.
You embrace life and infect others with your joyful optimism and wonderful stories and ideas. As a brother you have taken Van by the hand and led him through his own growth, one patient step at a time. As a son you never fail to impress and encourage your Mom and Dad. You are a friend, a helper, a team player and an eager learner. You have an inquiring mind that absorbs the information around you like a sponge. You may not call me Mommy anymore, but you will always be my first born baby boy. The Lord truly blessed us when he gave us you to raise and look after. May you always possess the enthusiasm of a small child and spread the love and joy you have brought to so many.

I love you all the way to the moon and back!

-Mommy

p.s. Last night you told me that you would watch Van while I took care of Baby Girl. You seldom give yourself credit for the wonderful little man you are. I hope you know how proud I am of you. You have taught me how to be a mother. Your brother and sister are lucky to have you to look up to.

BBehold, children are a heritage from the LORD, the fruit of the womb a reward. Like arrows in the hand of a warrior are the children of one’s youth. Blessed is the man who fills his quiver with them! He shall not be put to shame when he speaks with his enemies in the gate.
