My Canyon, the big 5!

When they told me he would grow up fast I don't know I really believed them. What a fool I am. Here he is at 5 years old and I wish I would've stopped a little more just to smile and hold him. 

We had planned a superhero party for the Saturday before his birthday but Thursday he came down with a terrible flu. A high fever, incessant cough and body aches had us postponing the party and staying in the house. His birthday was on Monday and he still was out of commission. He was finally feeling better and so excited to go back to school on Wednesday. Luckily, he was better in time for the preschool field trip on Friday. Seriously I'm pretty sure he thought they were all going to celebrate him.


He came home and exclaimed, "I want to go to that school everyday!" 

Yesterday was the party. He was so helpful and excited. He cleaned and helped decorate. I seriously don't know how I lucked out with such an amazing little one. 

Happy Birthday, love. Slow down and let me cuddle you.
