Birthday: Happy Birthday ISAAC!

What a great kid. I am thinking of all the things I've watched you learn in the last year and it is entirely amazing. (Here's the birthday card I made for you!)

How about these (I'm sure there's plenty more:
  • How to tie a fishing knot
  • Learned (and forgot) how to spell every state in the union
  • Learned a shot-gun snap and a pancake block
  • Started learning how to solve algebra equations
  • How to throw a rugby spin pass
  • Beat us fair and square in dominoes
  • How to hunt for fossils from an unlikely roadside expert
  • How to write your own HTML page
  • Learned a triangle choke submission hold
  • How to mow the yard
  • How to grow tomatoes from seed (and that they need more sun to produce better fruit)
  • Learned to play scales on a guitar (and Sweet Home Alabama)
  • Learned to use vocabulary other than 'good' to describe your school day
  • Learned to give amazing and deep meaningful hugs


There are many others, but this is a good start. You are an awesome son, keep it up! Happy Birthday!


Check out this music mixing application (via LifeHaker) as we're both learning to make a mash-up.

You are an amazing grandson also, Isaac, always willing to hug and to help. I love you and can't wait to get one of those hugs. I love you as high as the sky and as wide as Texas. Love, Gammy
