The food should explain the atmosphere of the house. Joe was working a late night again, so I had to do another birthday party full of farting, burping, yelling, gun-slinging 8-year-olds. Last year for a party! I can VOW to this. All in all it was a good night, fun was had by all, all went home sugared up and ready to drive the rents nuts.
Gabe is now 8 and has turned over a new leaf. He is now Mr. Independent and no longer needs the coddling of his parents. To our delight we are letting him experience a bit of independence which is now costing him money. We fine him or charge him $ when things don't go as he planned. His 8 year old logic is money in my pockets. He takes pride in his new decision making however. Although he doesn't need our coddling he does prefer it on days. He still needs to be cuddled and hugged for a good long hour every now and then. It's good to be wanted rather than needed!

I know Gabe turning eight years old was a big deal. Gabe told me now that he is eight he gained two more inches in height and now weighs 65 lbs. Wow-That was one heck of a birthday party to do all of that. Way to go Gabe
Gabe is soooo handsome Lasha! I still can't believe he is 8 yrs old.
