Well, today Mr. Jacob is five years old and, let me tell you, he thinks he's pretty hot stuff. He came into the bathroom this morning. I was at the sink and Matt was in the shower. I said, "Happy birthday, baby," to which he gave the proper answer of, "Thank you," (proud mommy moment). He then promptly left the bathroom. Matt said, "Happy birthday" and Jacob obviously didn't hear because he had left. Jacob promptly returned, this time to actually USE the bathroom. He did what was necessary and then leaned up to the shower curtain and said, "What do you say to me today, Daddy?"
He's a little mad at me though. He feels that he should be in kindergarten today since he is five now. I think he'll get over it.
We were carrying all the party stuff for his class to the car and he informed us that he did not have to carry anything because it was his birthday! If only life were that simple!
There will be presents and more cake later, along with big boys presents like bikes, action figures and skate boards.
I can't believe my baby is five. Enjoy it folks. It goes so fast...
