Jude knows how to make me feel special and always has. When he was younger and saw me walking into church, he would squeal with delight. Those moments of supreme importance made me feel better than royalty. And today, he has that same knack for putting those he loves on a lofty pedestal. He gets so excited as he anticipates his birthday outing with Robin and me. He knows he will get a gift from us anyway, but the fact that his excitement includes the time being spent with us just makes me love him more. Such a special young man.
We always start with lunch at a location of his choice. He indulged in a chocolate milkshake afterwards because, hey, it's his birthday.
Papa Robin helped Jude assemble a cardboard car while waiting for lunch.
Jude picked out three sets of Legos, a hard decision considering the shelves loaded with all kinds of Lego fun. He's a master at Legos and had them completed before bedtime. He kept telling us it was the best day of his life. He knows just the right words to say that make others feel loved in his presence. Just one of the many things I love about our Jude. Have a happy birthday and know that Memaw will love you forever.

Happy birthday, Jude! You are looking so grown up. I remember holding you like it was yesterday...such a sweet baby! Your cousins wish they were hanging with you today!
Nine years old. You are growing up so fast. I too remember the day you were born. I made a special trip from Houston to see you. Happy birthday to a good looking sweet young man. You make us all proud. I love you.
