This is the boy on his 5th birthday. It's one of my favorite pictures. He had such tiny Chicklet teeth. He's really changed a lot in two years. What a difference adult teeth make!
He will KILL me someday for posting this... but this is one of my all-time favorite pictures. When he was younger, he went through a very long dress-wearing phase. Dresses, high heels, tiaras. This pictures kills me. Some things about Roan that I don't want to forget:
- He's in first grade right now. He is apparently a math genius. It makes sense and it is very easy for him. Spelling is a different story, unfortunately. He really struggles with it but we work on it a lot at home.
- He is desperate for a dog. So, he reads dog books and prints dog pictures and talks incessantly about our someday-dog.
- He is completely obsessed with Monster High toys. He has all of the dolls except one or two of the very latest ones. He saves his money to buy them and plays with them all the time. It's funny though, because he worries what people will think about this. I don't think he'd ever want his best friend to know!
- He's in Boy Scouts right now and loves it. Last week, he watched some Native American dancers, and now is interested in doing that when he gets farther in Scouting.
- His best friends right now are Ryan and Drew.
- He is incredibly compassionate. He has a soft heart and worries about other people. I love that about him.
- He loves to watch iCarly, So Random, and most of the other tween shows.
- When he grows up, he wants to be a Rock 'n Roll singer, an actor or a musician. He says he is "destined for the stage"!
- He speaks his mind. He will tell you what he thinks and will let you know when he believes something is wrong or unfair.
- He has a real heart for people with disabilities or other differences. He has a natural way about him that puts people at ease. He's a sweet boy!
Happy birthday, Roan! I'm glad I'm your mom. You make our family complete!
