HAPPY 9th Birthday Vern!

Happy Birthday to you.
Happy Birthday to youuuuuuu.
Happy Birthday Dear Vern.
Happy Birthday toooooo youuuuuuuuu.

Look at that face. He knows how to woo his mom...or any other victim for that matter.  He had a decent day in school. Had one note that he was goofing off in media center. He had an excuse that I didn't buy and he relented and said "Yes mom I shouldn't be goofing off." I am sure he said it just to shut me up but at least he is aware of what he SHOULD be doing...

I scored on his present. He told me as I was tucking him in... "Mom, you finally got me some cool presents."  I am glad he is happy with them. 

He also got to choose his cake (chocolate on chocolate and the sugar footballs were a surprise that he loved)  and his dinner. We had ham, pork and beans, fresh bread, and celery sticks.

He gets to take his treats to school tomorrow but celebrated most of it today. With the smiles and thank you's I got, I think he was one happy boy.

It's Vern's week!

Today Vern is at his dad's house. He is having his birthday festivities over there and presents will be shared. 

This next week in school Vern is student of the week. He gets pictures on the board and gets to bring his tropheys from cub scouts to display. He is pretty excited about it.  He also has treats to bring to share with his class mates.

Vern had the option to donate a book to the school library or share treats with his classmates. He chose DONUT HOLES.

Hey that is the choice I would have made at 9 years old.  Some choices you have to let them make.  I wonder how exciting 9 will be for Vern???

I bought his present this weekend. I will give it to him tomorrow and let you know how it goes. His actual birthday is tomorrow.

HAPPY 9th BIRTHDAY VERN!!!!!!!!!!!
