Jimmy Does Double Digits – Happy 10th Birthday Jimmy!
On the eve of his birthday Jimmy decided to cut his hair! Oh gulp, my eyes may have leaked but I’ve always championed him and whatever he wants when it comes to hair so I couldn’t go changing just because he suddenly did when it came to how he wants to wear it! I think he’s super handsome and what a brave boy! But oh my… He looks SO much older!
I say it on every Birthday with every child but how? Seriously HOW? A decade of Jimmy has gone by in a flash and it could be just yesterday our brilliant boy made his superhero style entrance in the living room, fist up, facing the wrong way and stealing all our hearts immediately with that glorious face of his!
My to the minute he was born picture. 09.17 on 02/05/2012 means a decade of Jimmy Buster Bumblebee Hood Knowles in our family! My love!
He is as frustrating as he is amazing and ye always, always, he just flashes that beautiful smile of his and all is forgiven for absolutely everything. He has grown so much in the past year, got wiser, got wilder and his new love of football has taken over his life! He knows all the facts about all the things, he is creative and the best artist I know with his wonderful drawings. He loves hard and always a little hand slips into mine without him thinking. Still my baby boy, still just little but at the same time so much more grown up!
Happy birthday my wonder boy, a brilliant big brother, a lovely little brother (most of the time) and a spectacular son! He’s kind, good and sweet and so handsome whatever the length of his hair – He’s ten and he’s rocking it! We love you so much just as you are and always so don’t go changing Jimmy Buster Bumblebee!
