My little boy became a five year old yesterday. Today we shall be merry and celebrate his birth five years ago with cake, ice cream, family, and friends!

So….five Landon facts in honor of his fifth birthday:

1. He has a natural sense of humor (something I lack).He can really say anything and it’s funny. He loves doing voices, being silly, and making others laugh. He often has us all rolling.

2. He is absolutely, one hundred percent fearless. For some reason I forsee many visits to the emergency room. Nothing makes him happier than jumping from ungodly heights…and I cannot count the times he’s gotten stuck in a tree (not very fun for me!)

3. He’s the biggest snuggler and cuddler around. Although full of little boy antics, he will pass out generous amounts of hugs and kisses to all those he loves….and he really does love most people.

4. He already attracts the opposite sex. Yes. This is scary. The little girls at church giggle and squeal “Hey Landon” whenever they see him. The big girls at church (youth group) aren’t much better. The adult ladies at church, that wait on us in restaraunts, or stand behind us in line at Wal-Mart are easily wrapped around his little finger. (We’ve even gotten free appetizers before due to the charms of my youngest.) Although this is slightly amusing it is also a bit scary….

5. His family loves him to death and doesn’t know what they would do without him.
