Cooper's 4!

 

Before his birthday, we were able to have a little Joy School graduation for Cooper and his classmates.  Cooper had a great year and I really enjoyed being a part of teaching these sweet kids.

Only FOUR?? Cooper, you're an enigma to us. You are smaller than anyone your age, yet you always seem older than you are!  You are such a special spirit!  You comprehend things far beyond your years, and we love to hear the profound things that come out of your mouth (and love that it's still in the sweet little helium voice that I'm going to miss so much when it goes away! :)) You are kind, caring, and thoughtful and are a wonderful brother and son. You always make sure to give us at least four kisses and hugs each night before bed...extra if you feel like someone needs a little more. Thanks for being such a bright spot in our lives and sharing your love and light with us!

For Cooper's bday, we did family gifts on his actual day...this is a short video of him finding his scavenger hunt gift.

 After his actual birthday, we went with a couple of his friends to Chuck E. Cheese (not a normal stop, since it's an hour away, but he's been wanting to go for a while.)

Kyla not so sure about the horsey ride

 

Tucker wasn't too disappointed about going to Chuck E. Cheese  

Boy bonding!
