Birthday Boy

Today is Aaron's 10th birthday. How can he be 10 years old? He is my little boy. As always, he was up at dawn. He can't get out of bed until 7am though. We did gifts and cake last night due to the hectic pace of today. He had no problem with that. His gifts from us were a new basketball, baseball cards and fact book, andy griffith dvd's, and a signed Joseph Addai Superbowl Football. He liked them. He also got to eat Oreo cookie dessert for breakfast, a big treat at the Bennett house.
He loves all things sports, yesterday he played basketball at open gym for 2 hours, camp for 2 hours and then baseball practice for 1.5 hours. He loved it, and luckily, God graced him with his Daddy's athletic ability, and he is pretty good. Aaron is a smart young man with a bright future. He is very compassionate and a good big brother. He is reading trying to read through the bible right now. He has his moments though, as we all do. I pray he will grow to be a man of integrity, who loves the truth and will fight for what is right. That he will love God with His whole heart and learn to compete and play with the right motives.
The verse I gave Aaron when he was born was:
Jeremiah29:11
"For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."
