Nathan's 10th Birthday

Nathan's birthday is actually today but we celebrated last Saturday. Seven of his friends went with us to SPOG (Skatepark of Greenville) for several hours of skateboarding, pizza and cake.

Nathan really has some nice friends who gave him gifts he really wanted...like skate shirts and these little miniature skate boards and ramps. The thing that made me so proud of Nathan though was how many times he said thank you - to each person and to the group as a whole.

Nate can be a little over the edge sometimes in his excitability and this day was no exception. But his genuine pleasure in the gifts he was given was great to see. He continues to amaze me when I see a different side to him that I have not seen before.
