Every year, I must go into shock a little bit as my oldest child has a birthday. How could J be 15 already? But, it's actually true. He is 15 years old.
We had a busy week with VBS. His birthday was on a Friday, the last day of VBS. He spent the day playing video games. He'd been gone the previous 3 weeks, so he kinda missed it!
I let him open up his cards in the afternoon before we had to leave for VBS.
After VBS, some of the kids stayed after and played a game. Not sure what the game was, but they were having fun. Since it was J's birthday, I let them stay and have fun.
When we got home, we got out the cake and ice cream and sang to him. Since it was late, we would have to finish the celebrating on Saturday.
Saturday, J opened the rest of his gifts. Headphones and money from us, and shirts from his sisters.
J is becoming an amazing young man. The first 3 weeks of June, he spent at Kansas Bible Camp. First, he went to the leadership training camp, and then he stayed on to staff. He did quite a bit of work around the camp. Upon coming home, he helped with the VBS. He's growing in the Lord and is learning to serve Him in various ways. He's a hard-worker and I'm very proud of him.
Happy 15th birthday!!!
