4 Years Already???


We've been scratching our heads lately wondering where all the time has gone!? Preston turned 4 last week & it's hard to believe. 4 years old is a Big deal to Preston! He was so excited to turn 1 year older & to be a "big kid". He's grown up so much in the past year. No longer is he my toddler, he's a kid now! But I tell him all the time that he's always going to be my baby. for his birthday we went to Trafalga with his cousins & friends: Tanner, Evan, Owen, Ava, Faith, Cohen, & Cash. Then we had a special dinner at home on the night of his birthday. Grandpa Paul & Grandma Jeanette were there. I asked Preston what he wanted for his special birthday dinner & he requested "Fish!" His favorite food. Then we had molten lava cakes for dessert. Grandma Jeanette gave Preston a very special gift, a "magic blanket". She makes every one of her granchildren a magic blanket when they turn 4. The blanket is supposed to help keep them safe & protected. Preston loves his blanket so much, he sleeps with it every night & snuggles with it every morning when he wakes up. He's still not ready to give up his blue silky he's had since he was a baby, but that's okay... I want to keep him childlike as long as possible.
