My sweet little Justin is not so little anymore. Within the past couple of months I have really noticed his "growing up." It comes out in the way he talks, colors, builds, works, and now eats. :) Even his little arms are starting to get muscles. Our biggest age gap is between Jesse and Justin....almost 3 years. Being the third in line, he was let off the hook a lot! I still remember assigning him the laundry sorting job and realizing Jared and Jesse had already been doing it for a whole year or more by the same age. Oops. This made for a little harder time in teaching him diligence, but he is on his way to being a hard working young man.
Justin requested french toast, bacon, and scrambled eggs for his birthday dinner.
We are trying to start a new tradition of blessing posters. So far it has been hit and miss, but we aren't giving up. :) Daddy and the brothers blessed Justin with Diligence, Self-control, Faith, and Discretion. 
The last two birthdays Justin has wanted to be an Indian, so I thought it was funny that this year he got new cowboy boots and a small ax.
Can you tell they are brothers? 
Johnny ended up blowing out the candles. We re lit them. :) 
Justin wanted to say a few words about his birthday......"My birthday was fun. I had a good time. And I enjoyed it. And I had a good time opening all the presents. It is fun being 6."
You bring so much joy to our family. We love you, Justin David.

Absolutely adorable! He really is growing up! I love the cowboy boots and the breakfast for dinner request. Enjoy being 6, Justin!
Your boys are so great :) It was so neat to see them all together and spend time with your family! Hopefully next time I see you we will live closer...
Happy Birthday Justin!
