Dear Ben,
You turned seven today and we are so proud of you. You’ve changed so much in the past years, probably the most this past year.
You don’t grumble about going to school anymore and we’re so thrilled you have the same kids in your class and one of your teachers from last year. You do your homework a little easier, your handwriting is legible most of the time and you can read! We’re still here to help you, but I’m not as sorry to say goodbye to the homework battles we had over the last two years.
You’re more affectionate and love to kiss your younger brother, but remember to give your sister some attention and affection. She thinks you hung the moon.
You’re kinder. You still need to work on saying sorry when you do something wrong, but we see progress.
You don’t grumble about going to karate anymore and we’re so proud of you for attaining your high white belt status in late June. Just keep focused and you’ll be fine.
You eat so much more. We still need to get you away from being underweight, but I love that you’ll drink my smoothies and eat more things. You actually try things now, before declaring you hate it. And that is progress.
We are so joyful about the person you are becoming and can’t wait to see all the great things you’ll do in your life.
Love, Mom and Dad, Allegra, and Skylar
