Happy Birthday Mik!  

Mik has been with our family since the end of May...and he has grown 5 inches in 9 months.  He has grown tall and handsome.  Mostly he has grown as a person, as a member of the family, as a son, as a brother, as a friend, as a student. 

 He is a very gentle giant.  

Mik has had a pretty awesome week!  

We celebrated his birthday as a family.

Then he got an award at school.  It was an award for

 "Appreciating where he lives and goes to school".

  I'm so proud of all the progress Mik has made in 9 months time. 

 He has worked hard.

Now, as we speak....we have a barn full of friends that came over to celebrate with him. 

 He is pretty happy about this whole "birthday thing"....no matter what age he is.
