Our favorite son turned 12 today. Wowzers! Hardly believe he'll be getting the Priesthood soon. Such a good kid! We started out his celerbrations with a fancy breakfast before school. We opened presents throughout the day. He got some pretty SUPER gifts!
He spent the rest of the day playing on the tramp with the little girls, eating his Avenger cereal, bouncing his red, white and blue ball the girls gave him (it's been lost and they found it and wrapped it up for him) and playing on the Wii with Liberty. Good times!
We made him a T-Bone dinner with "real" mashed potatoes {and no gravy for him} & buttered broccoli. Delish!
For dessert, he choose to have a Chocolate Fountain. It was so yummy and made us all sick! LOL
Happy Birthday Justice. We love you!
P.S. When our kids turn 12, we make it a little extra special by making a unique gift that explains why we named them their name and a "precious" coin to remind them how much they mean to us. {Here's what we did for Liberty} It took a lot of research but we came up with the perfect thing for Justice. We bought him a Masonic sword and made a special shield to display it. We made him a shadow box that explained about tons of things that Justice means and also explains in detail, the symbols on his Sword of Justice. Pretty darn cool, if you ask me!
Here's a closeup of his explanation sheet. We connected his coin in the space left at the bottom left. I know it's huge but at least then you can read it. ;)
