Can my baby really be 6?

Big Birthday Electric Guitar...Rock on Hank!

Birthday Party #1

Birthday Party #2

It seems like we were just dropping off Hannah (peeper #1) to go have Hank (peeper #2) ... in fact, we even managed to run by Babies R Us for some blue bubblegum cigars ... this is what baby boys do to daddy's! I still have hard time droppping Hank off for Kindergarten some days...he doesn't seem big enough to be getting out of the car with big sister Hannah and walking into school with a back pack and his hair done to a T (by himself I might add ... I mean, how many 6 year olds do their own "do"?). Hank was so ready to be 6 ... seems like he had a countdown going for a couple of months which of course extended into, "It's still my birthday week" .... Hank is constant entertainment ... funny, smart and of course handsome, like his daddy. We were at a Christmas program last week and the "angels" came dancing along on the stage ... Hank leans over to me and says, "Mom, those are not angels ... they don't have those circle things on their head" .... talk about sweet and funny at the same time ... that is my Hanker! I love how he wants me to "lay with him" every night and read to him. This is my baby who wanted me to "rock me mommy" until he was about 4 ... such a snuggle bug and I guess that's how he became my "love bug". I like to ask him if he's still going to be my "love bug" when he goes to college (can't even begin to imagine those days ... heck, I barely got through Pre-K graduation ... it's not going to get any easier with my Hankie. So, here's to my big 6 year old "baby" ... Happy Sweet 6th Birthday to my Hankie, Hanker, the Hankinator and of course, my love bug!
