4thBD/IMG_0314 Thomas turned four on March 2nd!! (Click on pic for more party photos.) I had started to write a blog entry on his birthday, but didn’t get it done on the same date. I didnt’ want it buried in the blog, so I left the date as today’s.

The first thing he did on his birthday was go downstairs to see if he grew. We have pencil marks on one of the walls in our kitchen with the children’s names and heights. He had grown! About 1/4″ since October. He was thrilled.

At Thomas’ request, we had Chinese food for dinner. His favorite dish: Sweet and Sour Chicken. Recently, at a Chinese food restaurant, Thomas asked the waiter “if Chinese people ever sleep.” By the way, the answer was “yes”.

Also by request, we had Carvel ice cream cake.

Presents included art supplies, Pikmin 2, Curious George’s Birthday Surprise, and new clothes.

(Happy Birthday to Uncle Ben and Hannah Collins, too!!)
