Happy Birthday Carter!


Yesterday was your Birthday and you turned 7 years old. Your birth was a long awaited event. There were many people that were excited for you to come. You were to be the first grandchild on both sides of your family and the first great grandchild on daddy's side of the family as well. It took some persuasion to get you out. After 26 hours of labor they finally broke out the vaccuum and forsepts and you finally were here, Carter Brian Hughes.

I can't believe how big you are getting. It seems like it was only two or three years ago when you and daddy came into my life and now it has been five. You were only two years old when we first met, and you were such a doll. That is such a fun age watching you learn and discover new things.

Now look at you. You are so old. :) You just started 2nd grade last week and you are still learning and discovering new things. You are such a smart little guy. You do very well in school. You are a very good big brother to your sisters and they love you so much. They are always so excited when you come home. You love to play video games as does every little boy your age.

You like Ninja Turtles, Spiderman, Batman and anything related to Star Wars. You play currently play baseball and football and have recently decided you would like to try basketball.

You are a very good swimmer and you spend as much time in Grandma's pool as you can. You are so lucky to have such a big family and so many people in this world that love you.

-Happy Birthday Carter, Love Kristen
