Hudson's birthday

Hudson turned 5 yesterday! He is such a fun little boy. I often tell him that he is the "sugar that sweetens my day".

This morning during our devotions, I asked the kids to pray that they would be kind, show love, and be slow to anger. When Hudson's turn came, he prayed that he would show love, be kind, and be a good hunter when he grows up! He's never been hunting, and neither has John, but somewhere in his little mind that has taken root. I think he needs some "Matt time".

His requests for his birthday were tools (real tools, no kids stuff), wood to build his own house (with windows) in the back yard, and concrete so he could put his "collections" in it (which are odds and ends he finds on the ground. He brought home a 4" metal pipe from Andy's last night.

I'm looking forward to the next 5 years!
