Last week, just a couple of days after the Hoopla of halloween (which was my official due date), my little guy turned 5. Don’t ask me how that happened. He was so excited about being 5 that he missed the fact that I’m sad he’s growing up so quickly! He loves nothing more than following in his big brother’s footsteps, enjoys all things Minions, doesn’t understand the meaning of “quiet” and is a cuddly lovebug with the ability to make friends very easily.
I so enjoy these birthday interviews with my kids. As always, some of these answers are spot on, while others are spur-of-the-moment favorites.
