Charlie turns 7!! Opening his presents. He got legos ( no suprise) more legos, lion slippers, snow gloves, some great building kids and had a super mini golf pizza party with a few friends!
Charlie is very kind, cautious and thoughtful. He regularly finds trouble ( when they are suppose to be getting ready for school or bed) with Hank, just being boys. Throwing articles of clothing on the fan (as it circles around) chasing each other in their underwear...
He is determined to be a great reader, and has done a great job this year in school. Has many leadership awards, and is a fun, quite, easy going kid. Happy birthday Mr. Charles!!
