My little boy is six. I do all the normal nostolgia stuff each time he has a birthday, but honestly, I don't ever have those "oh I'm going to cry because he's getting so big why can't he be tiny again" moments. He never ceases to amaze me and I think the greatest part of being a parent is watching your child develop into a (hopefully) well adjusted adult. I don't know. I say these things and half the time I feel like other mothers look at me like I have three heads. Whatever.
We took him to King's Dominion for his birthday. He's still too short for the roller coasters, but he loved it anyways. He loved the Scooby Doo Haunted Mansion (it has laser guns) and the Scooby Doo (kiddy) roller coaster. Yes, I felt pretty silly panicing over sitting in the front seat, where of course kiddo wanted to be. Especially as we went down the hill. Sigh. Four more inches...
My zucchini is thriving, despit being repotted a couple weeks ago. I do have squash bugs which I keep reading are impossible to kill. I'm not looking forward to squashing them (no pun intended). Bugs are icky, even as a pile of goo and shell. Maybe especially as? I can't wait to get corn- I can't believe its actually doing well out here. Three stalks are above my knee. Hopefully the peppers will do well now that they get some sun (squash was sheltering them before). I'm going to try and make chocolate zucchini muffins this weekend. We'll see how that goes. I'm running out of ways to cook it.
Time to get going- so much to do before my sister and law and family come into town! We'll be spending a lot of time in DC and just having a lot of fun. I cannot wait to see my niece and nephews!!!

Just box it up and said it to me. I have one yellow squash. Just one. And I'm letting it get a little bigger b/c right now it can barely feed me!
btw, i've been killing at the cinchouse trivia.
