Lincoln is 7 !

Sweet little Lincoln turned 7 on March 5th.  Something about Lincoln is that he is very quiet at school.  He only talks to a few chosen friends.  At home he sometimes talks too much, but only if he's in the mood to socialize.  Sometimes if he's in his own little world, he ignores you.  Lincoln is very inquisitive and with his mechanical mind, wants to know how things work and why they work the way they do.  When we go to the dollar store, he rarely picks out a toy or a treat.  Instead, he mostly buys flashlights or key locks, in order to take them apart and see how they work.  He also likes to buy wooden popsicle sticks to build things and bubble machines.  Lincoln is obsessed with technology and especially a game called Roblox.  He would play all day if we let him.  He still has issues with being toilet trained.  His pediatrician assured me that he still falls within the 'normal' category.  As frustrating as this is, of course we still love our Lincoln boy.  He adds a lot of joy to our family.  

Lincoln wanted a birthday party.  I asked him who we should invite and he insisted on including his whole 1st grade class.  (There are only 15 kids total).  So we filled out invitations and I wasn't really expecting more than half to show up since we didn't know all of them closely.

10 kids ended up coming which was a great turnout!  They played video games and VR and watched some Disney Pixar short cartoons.  They had a good times and Lincoln glowed with all of his attention.  Friends that came were Sarah, Anne, Hazel, Emma, Robert, Mason, Enzo, Noah, Evan, and Cohen. 

On his actual birthday, he chose to go to Get Air, a trampoline park.  They played and played for a few hours.  Then he wanted to come home and have macaroni and cheese.  What a cutie!  He is a keeper.


7 years old now!  He had a good birthday and handed out king sized Hershey cookies and cream bars to his class at school.
