On March 11th my brother Victor turned 10 years old. We celebrated on Saturday since the kids HAVE TO have a party. It's easy for me to believe he's 10 because he acts his age, and is soo smart.
Victor is such an independent boy. He was #7 and was the baby of the family for over 4 years, but he has always been so independent and smart! I remember when we were sending him off to kindergarten, he came in for testing. The teacher did not have a red crayon she she pointed to a orange-red crayon and said this is red. His reply was, "no that is not red, it is orange." My mom said it was so funny and he made all of them laugh.
This is from the party we had Saturday. Another thing about Victor is when we tell him it is bedtime he knows the routine and does it. It took his older sister Lena such a long time to be able to understand what that meant. Same thing in the morning. My mom struggles to get Lena out of bed, and get her things for the day, while on the other hand Victor wakes up and does the morning routine-no problems. He is basically what you would call-an easy child.
For everyone's birthday my mom and I like to make a cake that they want. For instance, Leah wanted a butterfly cake for her birthday so we did that. Over the years we've made pool cakes, cookie cakes, turtle cakes, etc. This year Victor had a cookie cake, but I also made this Strawberry Jello cake from Natashaskitchen.com. Everyone (my aunts) loved it. I thought it was alright. That's another thing, it's not only Victor's friends that come, but their mothers as well. It becomes a social event.
Blessings,
