I just want to say how proud I am of my 3 boys. Though they fight and quarrel with each other daily, they can show a bit of refinement when needed. Here they are at their piano recital on April 25th. They all did a wonderful job. Their last soccer games are this weekend, just in time for a birthday party for Skyler. As you all know he will be turning 14. What, you may ask would a 14 year old want for his birthday? A telescope perhaps? A pellet gun? The latest Wii game? No, my son the "outgoing and busy-all-the-time" boy, wants a bookshelf! Is that weird? He even wrote it on a large piece of paper: "Skyler wants a bookshelf for his birthday" Is this one of those times when a mother asks, "Wow, when did the aliens kidnap my child?" He is very serious. He told us he wants a shelf to put all his book series on. He has been reading Fablehaven, The 13th reality and The Serpent Tide, to name a few. He is one of those kids who will fall asleep with a book in his hands. Heck, when a kid asks for a bookshelf for his birthday, I'd say, why not.

Oh, definitely! If he wants a bookshelf, GO with it! :) My oldest is the same way--falling asleep with a book in his hands. He hates school because it cuts into his reading time!! When he was little, the best way to punish him was to take away books. Isn't that insane? Anyway, good for Skyler! And happy birthday!! Can't believe you have a 14-yr. old!
Nice! I am so glad that they had a nice recital. And there is nothing wrong with a bookshelf--books are awesome!
That is great--What a good gift! somthing I would never think of, at least not for Skyler.
Thanks for letting Mark and the twins come up this weekend it was nice to spend a little time with them, we hope they enjoyed their stay as well we are just sorry it did not last longer and that all of you could not be here.
