William is 7!

 On March 19th, William turned seven.  It's hard for me to believe that my firstborn is already seven!  The years have just flown by!

It seems like yesterday he was taking his first steps.

For William's birthday, we celebrated by going to a nursing home in town where they had some special festivities planned for the residents and children who came to visit them. 

Everyone had a wonderful time and the kids each received a teddy bear and balloon and the opportunity to brighten "the grandma and grandpa's" day as well as lots of smiles. 

That evening we had cake and sang Happy Birthday to William with his good friend Micah.  (It's a good thing William's birthday is always on the solemnity of St. Joseph since it will always fall during Lent.)  
All in all a blessed 7th Birthday for William.
