So, the last time I posted was the day before I dropped my Karter Henry off at preschool. Like I said, he was nervous, maybe even scared.
Well, that didn’t last long. We are now 1/2 way through the year, and he LOVES preschool.
On January 9, that same little Karter Henry turned 5 years old. I can not believe it. I felt all those same emotions that I did the day before bringing him to school for the first time.
Here are a few fun pictures of my (once) little boy.
Tubing with Uncle Brian…
Exploring on Grandma Langstraat’s farm…
First day of school…
Captain of the day…
5th birthday party
This was the first time that we invited friends to a birthday party, and they had a GREAT time bowling. (Pictured below are Brody, Eli, Karter, Kyle Kooi, Jakson Gillespie)
Yes, the picture below was taken in a bar. It’s the only place at the bowling alley that we could eat cake and open presents. (Normally I would wait until their 6th birthday before booking a bar for the party.)
Last night, I was reading a blog about a little baby that died. Karter was asking me what I was reading, so I started telling him about it. I said to him, “Isn’t it sad that this baby died?”
Without thinking he said, “I don’t think it’s sad at all. I think he’s in Heaven with Grandpa and God, and I don’t think that’s sad.”
Keep that kind of faith, Karter. That is my prayer for you.

nOkay - it's been a while since I've checked your blog ... sorry. Love this post about sweet Karter. He is such a honey and I had so much fun visiting him in preschool last week.
Now I am expecting a post about
Brody. (hint, hint!!)
