Josh’s sweet sixteen- {Sunday Snapshot}

Bad mom (or busy mom), I’m finally getting to Josh’s 16th B-day post, but better late then never... What a fun party it was. He realized a blurb on facebook isn’t the best way to spread the word for invites, some of his friends didn’t know about it, but still a good turnout and great times as my Josh turned 16…

Never too old for a good old fashioned balloon toss

The girls styled his hair, it doesn’t grow long, just bigger- love his curls although time for a cut

Happy Birthday Josh!

I-pod touch, just what he hoped for but didn’t expect ;) Thanks Mom & Dad!

Josh, you’ve always been a delightful child, and now you’re a joy as a teenager. I’ve had many parents & teachers comment on what a good kid you are, well behaved, respectful. You like to have fun but know when to be serious, and truly care and love those around you. You’re not afraid to stand up for what’s right but you’re respectful to others. You’re an optimistic person with great friends. Your life hasn’t always been a breeze- like the time in 7th grade (when your body was still growing) when all of your good friends made the school basketball team but you. You didn’t let that stop you from supporting them and getting yourself in shape, practicing for next time. You’ve transitioned so well into a large 5A high school after being at a small Charter School for Jr. High, where you were involved in sports, drama, music (guitar), science fair, and student council in 6th grade, maintaining great grades with honors courses. Josh, you’ve been a joy to raise!
