12 Years Old!

Jake just turned 12 years old on December 12! Can't believe he's so old--and I'm so old!

Jake enjoyed his birthday party: about 20 12-year-old boys making pizza and watching a movie. I think, though, that they liked Pin the Tail on the Donkey best! He also loved receiving the priesthood and going into the Young Men's program. He is really excited to be able to pass the Sacrament and go to all of the youth activities!

What an exciting time for Jake, to be able to take part in passing the sacrament is such an exciting time in a young boys growth. And to be able to go to YM. So much fun. Happy Birthday Jake.

Wow, 12 years old! That's fun and pretty amazing...how DID we get to be so old to have children that age?! Hope you're doing great Amy! (This is Misty btw--in case my name doesn't show up!)

Happy Birthday Jake!! AWWW Amy the time goes so fast - I never thought I would see the kids I babysat at 30 yrs old looking like their kids - it's remarkable the contrast! Thanks so much for sharing and keeping in touch here. Have a very Merry Christmas and give everyone including your parents a big hug from "The Dog Mom" Cheryl in Toledo.

It's great to hear of a young man receiving the Priesthood of God. Hope he'll always remember and stay faithful. The best.
