I cannot believe that I have a son that is 9 years old! In 9 more years, I will have a child in college... ahhhh!!! The time has gone so incredibly fast... but as "they" say, time flies when you are having fun :)
In addition to this week being Isaac's birthday week, he was also selected as the Star Student of the Week of his class. Mrs. Steiger identified him as the student that best characterizes the trait of carefulness. What a privilege for me to attend his special chapel on Wednesday!
We celebrated Isaac's birthday by having a picnic dinner in front of Dodger's 2nd play-off game!!! What a fun time to share with Grandpa, Aunt Bethany, Uncle Kevan, Ezekiel, Rebekah Jane, and A-ma (my mom... who flew in from Taiwan for the celebration just Wednesday!)!!! Isaac was also showered with love by all the phone calls and cards from all over the country (and outside of the country)!
Picking out a special birthday pencil in class! 
Birthday dinner - baked chicken legs, fresh soft french bread, corn on the cob, mango, and watermelon!
Special biographies from Grandpa & Grandma
Dodger Rally Monkey from A-ma :) Sorry, Angel fans...
Isaac, I am so thankful that God gave you to our family as the first-born son! Our Almighty God has gifted you just right for being the first born. I love how you always want to do your best... in school, at home, and on the baseball field. I love watching you at church and how diligent you are taking notes during Pastor Mike's sermons and how hard you work at memorizing God's Word in AWANA. I know that we expect much from you and that you don't think that it is fair sometimes, but know that I pray you would know God's immense love for you through Mom and Dad's love and discipline of you. You are a precious gift that our Lord has given us and we do not dare to take our responsibility in raising you before the Cross lightly. May you feel loved and celebrated on this 9th birthday, Little Buddy! I love you, Isaac!!!
