I can hardly believe that our little Zachy is four! The years have flown by so far. It seems like not that long ago when I was telling everyone that I had two babies under the age of two. It was always a challenge to chase the boys as they ran off in different directions... now they are both riding off on bikes and leaving me behind! These are such fun years and I am so thankful to have healthy growing kids!
We celebrated Zach's birthday early again this year. Thankfully we weren't working around the birth of a new sibling this year, just a crazy, ever changing ship schedule! We had a simple cupcake party for him during the concert in the park. I have never seen 24 cupcakes disappear so quickly! It was the easiest party I have ever thrown! He had a fun evening with his friends and felt celebrated.
We kept asking Zach what he would like for his birthday and everytime he said, "a garden". So, we planted a container garden on our upstairs patio and he is growing strawberries, blueberries, grapes, green peppers, tomatoes, and basil.
We drilled extra holes for drainage, because Zach loves watering his plants! He has his own watering can and makes sure he waters his plants just enough!
So this is our new little garden!
Our first strawberries will be ready to pick today! What a fun birthday treat!
Happy Birthday to my sweet, spunky, energetic, loving, sensitive, free spirited, middle child! Daddy and I love you so much and we are so proud of you!
