Birthdays and Basketball Games

Being that we started this blog after the New Year, we missed the opportunity to share a milesone in the life of one of our children. So, we would like to recognize our oldest son's birthday! Amir Andrew turned 11 years old on the 27th of December, and according to him, it was a VERY momentous occasion. When we asked him what made this particular birthday so "momentous," his words were, "because I am almost a teen-ager, Mami and Papi!" And that actually jolted us a bit...because he is right! I am starting to feel old, LOL.....

Today also marked the beginning of the basketball season for his team, the Hickam Suns. They played their first game this afternoon. Although the other team emerged victorious, I have to give him and his teammates kudos for a game well-played. The final score was 14-11, for all you sports enthusiasts out there : )

Oh, wow! I can't believe how big Amir has gotten since the last time I saw him...I guess it's been a while, huh? He looks like he's taller than me. :) (Who isn't?)
