Carter, I just realized that you are now nine and a half. As you grow older I have found myself speaking about your trials and tribulations on this blog less and less. While we still have lessons to learn on a daily basis, I just don't want to share everything for fear of future embarrassment. I want you to understand this, so if in the future you look back and realize there aren't as many stories about you, there is a very good reason for it.
My silly boy. I just love your silly nature. You have a tendency to show this silliness only to the closest family and friends. But it never fails to crack me up.
I have watched you at school functions and lunch time. You are serious and quiet, which makes those silly moments all the more special.
Today we told everyone that we are going to the Dan TDM show in April. Daddy wanted to wait, but I was so excited! Ava and Dawson were excited, but you were over the moon. You were walking around the house dancing and singing with a huge smile on your face. It's so nice to be able to enjoy one of your interests with you.
Baseball season is just around the bend and you are excited to begin! Daddy is going to be your coach again this year. I'm glad you can share this together.
Recently you and Ava were having an argument, so I had each of you write a kind note to the other to make up for it. You put together this elaborate "elimination grid" that Ava had to solve before she could find her note. It was tough! You are learning so much at school, and it's wonderful to see you blossoming. In particular you really enjoy reading and do well at that subject.
This kid just sat down at the couch and started singing to me. Don't forget the red mustache and cowboy hat.
Well, that's about it for now. Carter, always remember that Daddy and Mommy love you forever and for always. No matter what.
