This is Matthew on the last day of school with his 1st grade teacher.
Matthew is seven!! He had a swim party with some of his favorite first grade buddies. His birthdays always remind me about his real birthday--the day he was born. His was an especially memorable birth. First, he was due on June 20th. I finally went into labor on the evening of the 25th. I wanted to stay home as long as possible before going to the hospital. I remember walking around the block around 10pm with the dog and being sooo hot! Finally, around midnight we went and found out I was at 8cm. It really hadn't gotten that bad yet. We hung around with little contractions here and there...they kept offering an epidural, but I thought if I was already at an 8 and it was this easy...no need! In the wee hours of the morning my Dr. came in broke my water AND started pitocin. Then there was no more fun or relaxing. Then I really wanted an epidural, but the Dr. was in surgery (UGH!). It was crazy,and I was screaming. Finally at 6am, on June 26th he was born....9lbs! He had and has an enormous head. With my next three, I asked for the epidural ASAP whether anything hurt or not!!
Matthew at 7!
Crazy about dinosaurs.
Ask questions not stop and will not accept a simple, no thought answer.
Loves reading--sometimes I have to make him stop to go out to play.
Loves scripture stories.
Doesn't like scary movies at all.
Sweet, happy personality---such a great smile.

Matt needs that big head for the facts and knowledge he has stored in there. He is such fun to be with.
