Roman's 5!

This boy turned 5! For the last year he's been begging to ride the go karts at fast lanes.  to do so, you have to be 5 or older. It was only fitting that he and his 5 year old + friends ride them together! The anticipation was so thick! We were ready for the party, but then a huge (Arkansas huge) snow storm rolled in.  We had to delay the party for one week. Roman was a champ.  He said, "ok" with no tears or sadness.  I was so impressed! He did get to go play with his best bud for the day and ride in a four wheeler pulled boat/sled through the snow. 

Mike and Shelby so graciously hosted the after party :) cupcakes and cake. Batman themed fun!! 

                                     

     

Kerwin and his wife Nancy couldn't make it to the party so they took Roman out to Chinese the night before the party.

Roman is special to me.  He is my first and he is now five.  He looks a like a mini Tyler and def has daddy's athleticism but he acts a lot like me.  He has a sweet heart.  He is kind and he is caring to others.  He is a rule follower and he cares a lot about being obedient.  His prayers to Jesus are some of the sweetest.  He prays and tells Jesus how much he loves him and how thankful he is for house, car, van, dad, mom, gray, and kauzie.  He typically says, "Jesus we love you so so so so so so so much." He teaches me about a child like faith. He is in preschool and loves it.  He watches a show, eats muffins and like strawberry milk in the morning  (about 7:00am) My prayer for him so to strong and courageous.  He recently told me that he wants to be a leader and not a follower.  He asked me how to be a leader- one of those moments i didn't know what to say. We've been looking at bible stories and verses about leadership.  I am blessed to be his mom!
