QOTD~Seano

Sean: "Mom, how would Santa get down the chimney if the fire is on?"
Me: "He wouldn't. We'll have to put the fire out that night. But maybe I won't so he can't get in."
Sean: "No! I've been doing better since Christmas is almost here."

Seano

Sean turns 8 today. He came into this world with a bang and has continued with an explosive personality ever since. He is funny, witty, sarcastic, wise, smart, emotional, animated, loving and sensitive. He is such a mixed bag and, although I could do without the sarcasm and animated outbursts for the most part, I love it all.

He was born four weeks early (although one of the nurses told me he was probably more like five weeks early) on a beautiful October day. He was 7 lbs., 13 oz. The dr. informed me that he would have been over 10 lbs. if he had been full term! We always joke with him that he was inside kicking and screaming "would someone get me out of here!" He is the same today~very demanding and impatient.

He doesn't miss a beat of anything that goes on around him. Recently I was talking with another mom at soccer about the craziness with all the activities, how parents go overboard pushing their kids and about how I feel most parents think their kids are going to get scholarships or even more if they have them on several teams. Sean was leaning on me at the time. We continued to talk about how we don't push ours and I told her how Sean chose not to play soccer this year, which was fine with us because he plays hockey (which is extremely demanding on the child and parents) and Caroline entered kindergarten this year which means that she was is now on the activity schedule as well.

A couple of days later Sean and I were alone together. He took this as an opportunity to hit me with a question he had, obviously, been thinking about for a couple of days. He had been listening very closely to my conversation the previous Saturday because he informed me that he does not like CCD and told me that, since his dad and I did not want to push them to do what they chose not to do, he did not want to go next year! Unfortunately, this is not an option!

Even with his demands and quick wit~he is so loving to his siblings, dad and I. He is so sensitive and completely in tune when it comes to the feelings of those around him. He loves to be hugged, snuggled and just to be close to his dad or I. We're happy to oblige.

He also loves to eat and eats almost anything I make. One of my favorite things to do is cook for him. He gets so excited and is so appreciative.

We always let them chose their meal on their birthday and an activity for us to do as a family. Today I'll be making him spaghetti and meatballs, pumkin pie for his "cake" and we're going bowling.

Happy birthday Seano~Daddy and I love you very much!
