The free-spirited, high-flying Edward has reached the golden age of 10. His teasingly-fun birth prompted me to begin this blog , so kudos to him for that. I was happy to spend the evening of his birthday dining on fried fish and mixed fruit at Red Robin and watching the Trail Blazers (his favorite player, Robin Lopez, also shares the same birthday) lose a frustrating game to the Clippers, a team who I hope ends up meeting the Blazers in the playoffs. I marvel at the potential I see in Edward and think he can impact the world in a big, positive way. He remains highly-sensitive to the needs of those around him, and is always free with time and money and sharing his things with others. He started playing the drums in the after-school band, and he continues to be a master video game player. He hopes to translate those skills to designing games some day, and whenever we have moments to walk together he shares all of his ideas for his first game (The Lost Hero), which are not few in numbe...
Eddie would make a great Prophet because then I could make comments like wow he turned out great and you'd never believe all of the trouble I had with him. I really hope that even if he doesn't become a prophet I'm able to talk about all the trouble I had with him in the past tense.
ReplyDeleteBTW I adore all of my kids but seriously Eddie makes me laugh constantly and can turn me from completely angry to smiling at him so quickly you wouldn't believe it. Some might say he's manipulative but I just think he knows how to turn a situation around rather quickly.
