Ben turns 4!



It was sad to me that I wasn’t with Ben on his 4th birthday, since I was in South Africa, but being Ben, he wasn’t sad. He is a happy little guy and despite his many moments of stubborn determination to do exactly what he is not supposed to, we enjoy him a great deal. He is destined to do great things, with all that willpower. Here is a photo of him with his Spiderman cake, which mommy made after she got back. We enjoyed his party with dear friends, and he also had a party at school with his little playmates. Ben’s accomplishments this year include learning to use a computer (seemingly effortlessly), beginning to speak Portuguese, pouring drinks without spilling (mostly) and inventing all kinds of new ways to try to get what he wants. We are on to him, though. What a joy he is to all of us, and his funny remarks frequently leave us laughing. - C
