At 12:36pm 5 years ago, Nathaniel Blake joined our family. Our little man turns 5 today. He woke up at 5:30 this morning, he was so excited. He is now joining the "Big Kid" ranks and quickly leaving those baby years behind. It's no longer necessary to check how many fingers are raised when asked your age, he's a Whole Hand Now!
What a blessing this little guy is. What a privilege Ron and I have had these past 5 years to raise him and teach him. What a blessing! Below are some pictures of the past five years. He has grown so much from that 8.5lb baby we brought home 5 years ago.
Maddie, Eli and I had a great time in Nathaniel's class today. We took in a snack and one of his favorite games, Bible Memory. His classmates enjoyed it too.

Here he is playing with one of his new gifts and wearing his Birthday Crown from Jr. Church
Nathaniel asked for a tractor cake!
Now he is such a big boy. It's seems like only yesterday and yet five whole years have gone by. As I tucked him in tonight he said he had enjoyed his 5th Birthday. It's exciting to see him grow and wonder how Jesus will change him and mold him in the next 5 years!
