Boston is SEVEN!

Boston is SEVEN! Gosh I love this boy. He asked for a kayak for his birthday this year. He was so happy to paddle his sisters around the living room haha.

Boston loves all things LEGO, or anything he can build. He loves star wars, super hero's, fishing, camping, swimming, school, snowmobiling, reading, helping others, playing games, and playing football or basketball with his dad (or mom! :))

We figured out that Boston gets the "winter blues." I kind of put the pieces together when he started acting cranky again as the seasons changed, I'm not sure why it took me years to figure it out. I had heard that taking a Vitamin D supplement daily can help, so we gave it a shot. His mood change was like night and day! At least once a week he would randomly burst into tears and couldn't tell me what was wrong. That hasn't happened in months. I'd definitely recommend. We give it to all the kids now (hoping for a miracle with the girls, but alas...they are still just as sassy and moody ha!)

Boston is kind, responsible, patient, shy (at times) extremely obedient (at home, but more so at school) responsible, loving, selfless, artistic, and always thinking of others. 

At school, they can earn "Bridger Best" tickets for doing good things, and then they have a drawing at the end for a prize in the office. Boston has been working his little tail off to earn extra so he can try and get one of the prizes, which is a little plastic jewel (he is making a crown for Ellie for Christmas, and it just has to have the little jewel to go on the front) 

Anytime he earns a treat or a prize, he ALWAYS lets them play with it, or splits his treat with them. His primary teacher made him cupcakes today at church, and he saved his all through primary to give to a sick Rylee who had to stay home from church. 

I could go on and on about Boston. We are so blessed to have him in our family, and the girls are so lucky to have him as a big brother. He is growing up fast and we're so proud of the sweet boy he is!
