Seven is Heaven

Jacob celebrated his birthday on Tuesday, August 12. He was really excited to turn 7, even though we kept trying to convince him he should go backwards to age 5. He got to choose an activity for the family and a friend to invite. Just like last year, he chose golf (he doesn't just look like his dad, he thinks like him too). So we took his cute friend, Karissa, with us to go miniature golfing.
Jake may be outnumbered in our family, but you'd never know it. His fun loving personality is contagious. Jacob has a great smile, and knows how to make people laugh. If you spend anytime with Jake you quickly notice how witty he is. He often amazes us with his knowledge of numbers. He can do math problems in his head faster than his mom. He's just started a new love for basketball, and enjoys sharing golf with his dad. Jake is still going through his process of trying not to be a picky eater, but we still have yet to get him to like pizza. Maybe next year. Jake, we love your sparkly eyes when you're teasing us, and your tender heart as you so carefully watch over your sisters. We love you!
