HAPPY BIRTHDAY ISAAC!!
November 30, 2008
i love making my son happy. in that sense…today was a great day. we spent the day making a HUGE deal of isaac’s 2nd birthday. his actual birthday is tomorrow, but today was the celebration. we started the day off with a train set that took my father in law and i 4 hours to put together (see figure 1 and 2). a few hours later our families showed up with loads of presents (see figure 3). then we ate cake (see figure 4 and 5). it was a huge success!
what is it about making your kids happy? every time i see isaac light up i want to start crying with joy. i imagine that i’m feeling a tinge of what God must feel when He blesses us…His children. i love my son and there are days that i give him what he wants because it is best. there are also days that i give him what is best and not what he wants. today i just plain spoiled him because i’m super double excited he’s alive…





Aww, that’s so sweet! Isaac and I were almost b-day buddies! Mine was yesterday (11/29)
That is awesome man!! Congrats and Happy Birthday to your son!!
that’s the whole amazing thing huh….getting joy by making other people happy. i never understood until i had kids. but it’s true….and amazing. good stuff. happy birthday isaac.
I’m proud to say I put together my daughters train set in under 3 hours. Ha. That thing is a beast. Nice work.
