An Ode to Five

Hey Jude,
You're not afraid
You were made to
Go out and live life!

Five is the moment of truth: "Mom, I know having me turn 5 is hard for you..."

"Soren, if you fall in love and kiss someone else, my heart will be broken!"

"Mom, when are you going to have another baby in your tummy?" (NEVER!!)

"When our chicken gets old and stops laying eggs, can we eat her?"

"It makes me sad when you yell."

"Don't you dare! (tickle me, chase me, hug me, kiss me)" (as he laughs and runs away)

"16, 17, 18, 19, Ten-Teen"

Five is going to be a great year, man-cub! I love you!!
