Happy Birthday Mark!

Today Mark turns 10 years old.  I told him to enjoy yesterday because it was his last day of being a single digit.  He is a decade old today!  He thinks that is pretty cool.  Mark was born on May 21, 2001 at 11:07 p.m.  He has made it clear to me that he doesn't officially turn 10 until 11:07 today.  I asked him if that meant that I had to wait until that time to give him his gift, he told me that it would be okay to celebrate his birthday all day long!  Here are some facts about Mark.

He learned to walk when he was 14 months old.

When Mark was 15 months old he became a big brother

Mark loves to read

Mark loved to pretend he was one of his dad's online game characters and would occasionally 'rest' like the characters do in the game.

Mark had eye surgery (for lazy eye) when he was 4 years old

He wore glasses for a few years after the surgery.

He likes playing with his cousins.

Mark enjoys being silly.

Mark likes to play with Seth and show off his strong muscles!

Mark would much rather be playing computer games or reading, but when he has to, he has a great time playing outside!


Happy birthday Mark!
I love you!

  2. I love the picture of him in the yellow shirt. When you compare it to the picture of him on your side bar at the right, you can tell that's definitely Mark! He has his head tilted the same way and he's smiling almost the same. So cute!
