Gram and Grandad came up for a wonderful family birthday party. Gram and Grandad always make it special!
Hot dogs and burgers on the new grill, some birthday cake, and did we say "presents?" What more could a nine-year old ask for?
Afterwards Benny put together a giant, and I mean, giant, Lego set. It is a Coast Guard ship and tower and dock and he did it all by himself. Tomorrow he will put together the life raft and helicopter that goes with it.
Seems like yesterday Benny was a new nine pound baby in my arms, born the day after Election Day when I went to bed not knowing who the next President of the United States was going to be, as the results were too close to call.
And now here it is nine years later. He's growing up so fast!

Nine is more than fine. What a smart, energetic, sweet guy Benny is growing up to be.
He sure is. And now he's reached an age where he's going to start growing up even faster. Hard to imagine!
