Happy Birthday, Jax!

Ten years ago today I became a mom for the first time. Jax's birth story was the most exciting of the three (two scheduled c-sections after an emergency one are not as fun ;)

So, to celebrate Jax's birthday, he got to start writing the WASL which is our state's standardized set of tests. There are signs up all around the school asking people to be quiet. They were trying to recruit extra parent volunteers to ensure that kids walking to/from the lunch line kept quiet. Kids are nervous and scared all over the school (at least the grades 3-6 with most emphasis on 4's and 6's).

Anyway, a more fun way to celebrate his birthday, besides the "WASL Treats" I took in for his class (cheese sticks and strawberries), he wanted to hand out a pair of fake nose and glasses to everyone in his class. I hope the teacher did not mind. He was going to do it this afternoon. We'll see how she handled it after he gets home from school.

I made him a Lazy Daisy Cake and we are having hamburgers for dinner. Love his simple taste.

Happy 10th Birthday, Jax. Thanks for being my son.
