Happy Birthday to MJ (happy anniversary to us)

Happy birthday to our wonderful Michael! He is 10 today! Double digits! I can't believe it's been a decade! Funny thing... when I was pregnant with Michael a guy on my team at work asked about his name. I told him Michael Jene and he said "Oh! MJ!" which I thought--NEVER! But that was when I could only picture Michael as an infant. I totally call him MJ now 😋

Here are some of my favorite things about Michael:

He's very smart...always the top of his class.
He's handsome--brown hair and blue eyes, which is exactly what I hoped for with him!
He's funny








He's a great big brother. He especially loves to hold, kiss, and talk to Sophia (but he usually makes sure no one is watching, I think that's cute)

 Above is when Michael FIRST became a big brother :-)


He LOVES his friends and is very loyal.
And my very favorite thing is that my whole life I wanted to be a mother, and he made me one 😉

(also happy anniversary to us 😘. We got married on Michael's birthday bc it was the only day that made sense, but we knew we would celebrate our sealing anniversary every year instead. However today is worth mentioning because it does mark the time. 6 years!)

*Crazy tidbit...see the picture of Sarah and Michael, and then the picture of Sophia and Michael (sophia in purple) above it? I didn't even mean to do that. THAT's how much Sophia and Sarah look alike!
