The Santifort Family: Kevin's 4th Birthday!

Four years ago today a sweet, caring, loving little boy came into my life. I never knew I would be so in love. He amazes me more everyday with the little things he does and the joy he brings our family is incomprehensible.

Today was a wonderful day! We got up early and Kevin opened one of his presents....a box of Matchbox cars. We went to Krispy Kreme for breakfast and got a big SURPRISE! The manager let us come behind the scenes, check out how donuts are made and make our own! Kevin and Kira got to pick their donuts, what type of filling they wanted, and last the topping on top. They had so much fun dunking their donuts in the big vats of chocolate! Then the manager gave Kevin a card for a dozen free donuts a month for a whole year! What a wonderful experience! Then Kevin got his haircut...he wanted it "spikey" for his special day! When we got hom there was a surprise at the door...a gift from Grandma and Pop Pop! Kevin loved that Benson came over to play too. They ran around the house chasing Kira with noisey guns. Poor girl. After a quick nap we headed over to Steak N Shake (Kevin's choice) for some burgers and fries....topped off with a HUGE free "birthday boy" sundae! By the time we got home to sing "Happy Birthday" he was full and didnt want any of the cupcakes we made. Amazingly enough this is the first year Kevin didnt cry at the sound of the birthday song! Yeah!! After opening presents...it was time for a quick bath and bed. He loved all his gifts from Mommy, Daddy, Kira, Grammy, Grandma, and Pop Pop. He got a new bike, rain gear, a monster truck, a race track, a car magazine, a shaving kit, and some games. What a day!!

I am so thankful for my little boy! He brightens my life and makes me the happiest Mommy in the world! Im thankful that he is happy, healthy, and growing like a weed, but on the other hand, I can't believe how fast time flys. I wish I could slow things down and keep him my little boy forever! I love you Kevin....Happy 4th Birthday!
