He’s 6

I associated a temporary magic  with the preschool season and reluctantly said goodbye to that stage as Evan quietly and confidently marched into the world of reading  and trying all kinds of new things this last year.  It turns out, this boy’s magic is not age-related and it’s here to stay.  He is a total joy.  Evan loves drawing and legos, books and humor, dancing and soccer, silliness and anything outdoors.  He is a vibrant encourager but not a people pleaser and he makes a solid friend.  He has a beautiful relationship with his brother, squabbles included.  This year, we exchanged the watermelon cake for lego brownies per his request, sharing them with school mates.  We love swimming on his birthday and shared an afternoon with friends, celebrating a shared birthday with his sweet buddy, Elissa.  We also visited his Bedouin twin friends who share his exact birthday, exchanging gifts and playing hide and seek.  You are a gift, Evan.
