It is Ibey’s birthday.
He’s ten.
Wow, that makes me feel old. I remember when we brought him home! Not too long afterwards he was hospitalized and had to have a spinal tap and all that fun junk. I was not pleased… for the first time, I had to miss giving my little bro baths. That was not cool.
What was cool was that he recognized our voices in the hallway when we came to visit him and got all happy.Â
Ib was always a pretty happy dude. He never realized that he was younger and littler than my friends from youth group, so he’d always be challenging them to basketball matches in the gym. And then he’d challenge the college students at the track to a race. Every now and then they let him win, but it never seemed to phase him.
Let’s see, what else. Ibey was the most faithful follower of anything I wrote. He listened to pretty much everything that I wrote about Lonya and lauded it as better than Tolkien. 
 Ya gotta love that kind of brother.
He keeps us all on our toes with music and sports… piano and Little League…
And he says the funniest things, and can make the strangest faces. Especially Mr. Bean-like faces. Ib is all around incredible.
So today my youngest brother turns ten. I pray that he will always keep learning, and growing in wisdom, and in maturity, and that he will use his talents to serve God.
He’s a knight
And a pirate
Out to slay the dragons and get the treasure
He’s a crazy little boy
And I’m watching him grow up
Someday…
His dreams will take flight
Someday…
But for now I am watching him grow up
As he learns and as he plays…
We have been given this day
To prepare for the rest of life
This day…
To live.
Happy birthday, Ibey!

Be sure to say “HAPPY BIRTHDAY!” for me.

Have you seen Prince Caspian yet? What was is it like. Was “the kiss” unpardonable?
Happy Birthday, Ibey!
We saw Prince Caspian, Anika! And the verdict is….*drumroll*….we liked it! “The kiss” was pardonable, I think, and most of the changes weren’t so awful. The filming was awesome.
Seize The Day!

Yay! Happy birthday to Ibey! Little brothers are awesome. As are big ones.
Caspian was awesome! I saw it twice - Saturday with my family (well, half of them), and Monday with our pastor’s family. Very cool. Quite different from the books, but whenever I watch movies based off of books I always look at them as completely different stories altogether. That way I’m not disappointed when they’re different.
I need a Caspian poster for my room. Very badly. I’ll have to work on that.
