Moving on up!!  Jude is 11 years old today!!  It really does not seem possible that 11 years ago at 10:57am I became a mom for the first time.  On June 25th, 2010 Jude made me a mommy.  Thinking back on those moments bring me such joy because he is such a special kiddo.  

Happy 11th Birthday Jude!!

After another crazy year of nothing normal…I am happy that your 11th birthday is going to be spent in a more normal world.  Even through the crazy ups and downs of the last year you have shown such perseverance and strength to navigate a world that none of us knew what to expect.  Jude, you are kind, incredibly smart, creative, empathetic and full of fun.   

Your hugs and your laugh brings a smile to my face.  I cannot imagine a day without you around and I am so blessed to be called your mom.  In the last 11 years you have taught your old mom more than you can even imagine.

Things I Do Not Want To Forget 

  • Flag Football and Basketball are your favorites 
  • Video games everyday! 
  • Such a great reader! 
  • You adore your friends – such a good friend. 
  • Your imagination is pretty amazing. 
  • You got the lead in your class play! 
  • Yellow is still your favorite color! 
  • You want to be a scientist when you grow up. 
  • You love to snuggle…even though you are almost as tall as me. 
  • You care SO MUCH! 
  • Seafood is always a treat and you love to try new fish. 
  • Your kitties love you…especially when you lay down to read or go to bed. 
  • At least 5’4″!!

My 5 Wishes For You 

  1. Rock 5th Grade – oldest in the school! 
  2. Continue to explore! 
  3. Give yourself grace…it is okay to have a bad day. 
  4. Keep learning about things you enjoy!

Happy Birthday Turtle!  Buddy, I am so blessed to be your mom.  I know that your year will be filled with happiness and I cannot wait to see what you achieve and accomplish in the coming months.  You can do anything you put your mind too!  

Bring on 11!!!  I love you Jude!
