Mason turns 6!

So far, 6 years old has been great for Mason. There are so many

wonderful things to say about Mason, I'm not sure where to start...

So, I'll start from when he was a baby. Mason was my BEST baby!

From birth, this kid was on a schedule and wanted to be just like his

big brother and sister. Once 18 months hit, I wasn't sure if we were

going to keep Mason or ship him of to live with the grandparents!!! He

definitely became very stubborn, very quick. But, I think being stubborn

is in some ways a good thing. He learned at a very young age how to get

his way. I'm not sure how he does it, but he's is an excellent salesman. For

example, he'll ask me for something, and at first I say, "only one," then somehow

he tricks me into letting him have two. I think he will make a great salesman

one day. Mason has a special love for fire...at all the campouts, he never strays

too far from the flames! Definitely keeping an eye on this fascination!

Mason has a big heart, even though he puts on the "tough guy" act.

Deep down, he's so sweet and there's nothing he wants more than approval

from Elena and Tyler. He loves his brother Tyler most of all, and it shows.

They are the best of friends, whatever Tyler is doing, Mason wants to do it too,

whatever Tyler is wearing, Mason wants to wear it too and whatever Tyler is

eating, Mason wants to eat it too! Along with being sweet, Mason definitely has

a talent for sports! Lately he's become quite the little soccer player. Lastly, I love

how Mason is always taking us by surprise, whether it's by the funny things he says

or the fact that he knows most of his addition and subtraction facts. I'm so excited

to see what new things come this year because of our sweet little 6 year old! I love

you so much Mason and am so proud of who you are becoming!!!
