This boy just melts my heart. He has a different kind of spirit. Different than any of my other children. He is so much like his daddy, but has just enough of his mama to keep him sweet <3
His connection with animals & nature is amazing. Sometimes I’m not sure if his attachment to this farm is a blessing or a curse. He is so love sick with his farm that any time we leave he can’t completely enjoy himself, because he is too concerned with the happenings of the farm while he is gone.
For Birthdays & Christmas he doesn’t ask for toys like most kids – he asks for pets, cages, knives, guns, & fishing trips! He doesn’t spend his money on “things” he saves it for his animals or to get more animals. He LIVES for the “1st Monday Trades Day” weekends (flea market). Earlier this summer he saved $30 & bought himself his very own pig (“Miss Piggy”) & a cage to bring him home in. I often find him up early in the morning (before anyone else) down playing with his pig.
He seldom sits through an entire movie. He will often become to inspired to sit & watch – he gathers ideas & then goes out & does it. He is full of adventure & loves to explore.
This nature lovin’ country boys of mine is 7 years old today! Where did the time go?
We are spending Tucker’s birthday at the lake (yes, only for him & maybe 3 others would I endure over 100* temps). His daddy has rented a cabin & booked a guided fishing trip = because that is “all” he wanted.
