He is SIX. Six years old. This kid is no longer a little toddler, but a full on adult mini man. He is at such a fun age of learning and exploring and understanding...we are just over here trying to keep up. River is, and has always been so full of energy, adventure, and wisdom. He has also become quite the comedian and has such a good sense of humor. He loves to tease as well. Like, he teases his sister allllll the time. I guess that comes with big brother duties. oh man.
Some of his favorites right now are...
color: green and white
food: costa vida
drink: milk (almond or soy)
book: harry potter and the order of the phoenix
movie: harry potter
He is still obsessed with Legos. Could build them all day if i let him.
He is a mtn goat when we hike. He hiked up Timpanogos (to emerald lake) this summer all by himself and scales mountain sides like no problem.
He loves playing tennis
He has become a little fish in the water over this past year
He is such an artist and loves to paint and draw
I asked River what his favorite memory is so far in life, and without hesitation, he responded "when Rumi was born." game over. heart melted.
We are so grateful we get to go on this journey of life with you as your parents river. you continue to be the teacher, and us, the students. You are wise beyond your years, sensitive, caring, rambunctious, full of life, and curiosity. And you are so loved. You are loved. You are loved. You are loved.
Happy 6th Birthday!
We had a little birthday party with all the neighborhood friends river made this summer. it was a blast! we have loved playing with these fun kids over the past few months, and we are really going to miss them. river is super into harry potter at the moment, so of course we had to have a harry potter theme party. now for a massive photo dump of our unforgettable night celebrating our favorite boy.
