My oldest child turned 10 yesterday.  I just wanted to write out my thoughts about this godly, handsome, brilliant, young man.  B has a serious love of books.  He learned to read at the age of 4, and he has spent much of his time since then curled up with a good book.  He also likes to draw and write stories.  He would like to become a writer and/or an illustrator.  He also enjoys writing poetry and reading his Bible.  He is working on his third time of reading through the Proverbs.

B is such a blessing to me.  He helps take care of the baby by reading to him, playing with him, and even changing his diaper!  He reads to his other brothers and sisters, and enjoys playing board games with them.  He has tackled mowing the lawn without being asked, and strives to please those around him.  He is also very giving, especially toward his grandparents.

I praise God for this little man that He has entrusted to my care.  I pray that I may raise him in the nurture and admonition of the Lord, and that he will grow strong in his faith and love of the Lord.

You are truly blessed! I had a little boy like that once---now he is a young man, way taller than me, who is studying for the ministry :)
Glad you found your printer cd---what's that old saying? "God is always on time, but rarely early?"
Thanks for visiting my blog and posting there!
