Yes it's hard to believe ... but 7 years ago a very special little boy was born - and that boy came into our lives and changed it forever and ever.
Although we are having Joshua's 'big' birthday party with all his friends on Sunday, today we also celebrated. After tennis, we picked up his best buddy Tomo and went to the movies and then Tomo came back here for the evening and a sleep-over (probably the best present Joshua could have received really!). Mummy & Daddy had given Joshua a WII sport so the boys had so much fun playing archery, soccer, table tennis, 10-pin bowling - and even flying a plane !
Joshua received many wonderful presents ... some special phone calls, emails and text messages. As we go deeper into this journey of parenthood it becomes more clear that bringing up a child is not something you should do alone - so thank you, from the bottom of our hearts, to our family and friends out there who take such an interest in Joshua - some from very far away, some closer - I cannot tell you how much it means to know that you are all there, and that you care.

Josh got to choose his favourite meal tonight - chicken nuggets & chips - Mummy did also cook some roast vegetables but, surprise-surprise, neither of the boys wanted any !

Simple fun .... sliding down the bank on some pieces of cardboard as the sun went down
