It's that time, Dakota's turning 9

 Alright, it's that time of year again. We wrap up another year and welcome in the last of Dakota's single digit Birthdays. Which also means a more grown up (yet still super silly) Dakota and a very weepy mother. Okay, I am not weeping. But I am left wondering how time passed by that quickly. I mean, 9 years!

Dakota is still very much the same kid he has always been. He is still really into superheroes. Still always laughing, and caring, and just generally happy. He still loves to come snuggle up with me in the mornings that he wakes up before the others. And thinks anything to do with the topic of farts is just the best. We took the kids to see Despicable me 2 for the 4th of July, and I am STILL hearing about the fart guns. Oy.

We wish Dakota a great Birthday and another year full of laughs, snuggles, craziness, and more. We pray that he will always stay true to himself, always care for others, and always stay the fun loving kid he is. Happy Birthday Kota. We love you!
