not entirely sure how this happened, but joseph has turned six! it feels like just yesterday that he was a baby... then a small child that wouldn't talk and did not want to be toilet trained - then having to have his teeth removed... then going off to school, full time... and now all of a sudden he's in year one! what the heck child!
some joseph updates: over the last few months he has been incredibly hard work. ever since dougs dad went into hospital for the last time and doug had to keep spending hours and days there and away from us, he hasn't coped. he loves doug so much and is super close to him, so after stephens death, if doug had to go anywhere, joseph just lost his mind and would scream and cry and thrown a tantrum.
then... when school started, he just wouldn't go into class and would stand outside and cry and just wouldn't go in, and then lose it when someone tried to make him.
but, we made it through, as we always do and now he is going in to class quite happily and is doing well - so i guess mummy won't have to kill him after all haha. he really is a loveable kid, with the most adorable face and i love his cuddles and sloppy kisses.
he had the happiest day, starting with daddy being home, getting some funky presents including a kids garmin watch of his very own (sneaky mum and dad to encourage him to move more), a raiders t-shirt and a back to the future t-shirt. he was so chuffed!
then he took funky (in his opinion, i don't know how keen on the decorations i was to be honest, but he loved them) cupcakes we decorated last night to school to share...
and got to to have dinner at hungry jacks with his favourite people (dad, me, maddie, alex, grandma and the pinkers) for special treat
plus we even busted out the cake he had asked for (a mini red velvet cake from woolworths) at hungr jacks much to his delight.
little joseph kendall, i love you and your foul attitude like crazy and look forward to another year with you. you are the coolest, crankiest and most loveable kid i know.
