HURRAH HUNTER!

Hey!  Hunter Alan Hernandez turns 5 years old today.  5 is such a great age.  You get to start kindergarten.  You learn to ride a bike.  You can play at a friend's house for hours.  You don't take naps anymore.
Here are a few things I love about Hunter:
1.  He has so much enthusiasm!!  Enthusiasm for just about everything and everyone

2.  He is so friendly.  Take him to the park and he has a new friend within minutes.

3.  Hunter loves to swim.  He is really a fish in the water, I think.

3.  Hunter is very coordinated.  He learned to walk very young and to run before most kids could walk.  He is naturally very athletic and physically capable.

4.  Hunter has very advanced soccer skills. Does that surprise anyone?  But to be able to kick the ball with your laces and score goals against older kids when you are 3 and 4 is amazing.

5.  Hunter learns what the rules are and tries very hard to follow them and sees that everyone else does, too.

6.  Hunter adores his little sister, Isabella.  His only problem is that he wants to love and kiss her more than she wants.

7.  Hunter has always had a special relationship with Papa.  Since he was very little he definitely preferred Papa.  Maybe that is because his dad, Mao, has such a special relationship with Papa.

8.  Hunter is a very smart boy and learns quickly.  He loves to have a notebook with him to do his work in.

9.  Hunter loves his family and wants to do what they tell him.

10.  Hunter already can speak and understand some Spanish. What an advantage to be bilingual.

We love having Hunter visit us and keep us entertained.  Hope we get to see him soon.

Happy Birthday, Hunter!  We love you.
