The Morning Of...

I need to revert back to May Day if you don't mind...  The morning of Dax's fifth birthday!  It's worth documenting because -- whelp, he's rad.  And also, he was just such a peach the morning of his birthday!  He was thrilled with every gift and so appreciative and it kind of just made my heart beat out of my chest watching him feel so loved and being so gracious about it all.
 Dax is OBSESSED with the movie, "Sandlot".  Which means he is also obsessed with Converse shoes.... specifically, "Benny Shoes" which are black like the main character wears.  They weren't an identical match, but he was thrilled.
 Money from Grandma Clement was a SERIOUS hit.
 A "REAL Bow and Arrows" from Grandpa Hooky and Grandma Gail -- only thing he asked for except for a motor scooter.
 Kael had carefully selected a "lock box" online for Dax's big day.  He said, "It's kinda like mine, but kinda different, and Dax will love it and all his money will be safe from the Leprechauns."
 I ALMOST SWOONED AND FELL TO MY DEATH WATCHING THIS.
 Ace decided to give our little Ninja Turtle fan a turtle shell back pack with all the character masks and weapons.  See, he knew it would be a gift best used by sharing.
  Little smartie.
 On his way to preschool to share famous square donuts for his special day.  He sported a FIVE shirt, his Benny shoes and his turtle shell back pack.

 And the Piece de Resistance... the Motor Scooter.  It was SO worth surprising our little dude with this hot ticket item.  The smile kinda says it all...
Or the smirk...  He's clearly too cool for school these days.

Cool! My Dax is dying for one of those scooters since his friend has one. Looks so fun!
