Clayton's Birthday

Clayton turned 12 this month! We followed the annual tradition of having 1170 boys to the house to play. Well, it wasn't really that many. But it always feels like it.

At Clayton's first birthday, we made a dinosaur cake. For 12, it was an electric guitar. For his 1st birthday, he got things like a picnic table and inflatable Tigger. For his 12th, he got things like a machete and enough money to buy his own i-touch.

When I turned 12, I got an alarm clock with a telephone that sat on top. I could plug it into the landline. With his i-touch, he can text, e-mail, get on the internet, and make calls with i-call - anywhere he can tape into Wi-fi. Gracious!
