Today is Younger Boy's thirteenth birthday.

He requested a homemade meal of grilled pork chops, corn on the cob, steak fries, and ice cream cake.

He got three items off of his list and some cash from his grandparents.

He got an art kit from Boarder, video game from Middle Boy and a new bike from me.

I had wrapped a pack of gum, because it was on the list.  Then I asked him to go out to the garage to get something.  That was where his bike was.  He came in so excited, but still unsure if the bike was his.

For the rest of the evening he sped up and down the street on his new bike.  Having a blast!!
