Jordan, Jack A., Taylor, Isaac, Jack H., Ricky, Blake, Jake
Holding his candle to his rootbeer float for the "Happy Birthday" songOur raising boys book says "eleven is heaven" and we've found it true for this guy who recently turned 11.
He planned his birthday party and I didn't have to do a thing but clean the house. Here's the party plan:
- play 4 square while everyone arrives
- play Snorta (pictured)
- lego game (everyone gets 15 seconds to add something to structure before passing it to the next person)
- have rootbeer floats (nobody really likes cake in our family)
- open presents
Over the last month it has occurred to me that Jordan's "at home" life is already more than half way over. It makes me want to be a better listener and spend more time with him while I have the chance. He's been really fun to have around lately. He tells the funniest stories and always has us laughing with his higer pitched

Oh! the point about his "at home" life being half over--Oh that is sad. And makes me think, think, think. Thanks for the party--Isaac had a great time!
