Kolten was lucky enough to be a Valentine baby. I am always reminded of when he was born, how scared we were. The cord was kinked around his shoulder and I had to have an emergency c-section. I have never been so scared. He was only 6 pounds and skinny looking, he wasn't like I imagined him. But, he started eating like crazy, and in a couple of weeks he looked just like I had pictured he would. I was so excited to have him, he was so much fun. He still is fun, and I am lucky to have him in my life. We have had a tradition to have heart pancakes each birthday, but he told me he doesn't like pancakes and he wanted McDonald's, so that is where we went for breakfast. That night, he chose Winger's to eat at, which isn't the easiest night to eat out, but it wasn't bad at all. We had a big birthday party with both of our families. It is alway pretty crazy, but it is nice to have just one big party. He never really decided on a cake that he wanted, so when I saw this Yoda cake online, I took it as a personal challenge. It had some instructions so it wasn't too bad. It wasn't perfect, but I have to keep reminding myself that it is just a cake. We had pizza for dinner so that was easy. It was a nice party, especially because the cake was done and the house was cleaned all the day before. Kolten mostly got money and gift cards because he's getting harder to shop for. He got a nice camera from Lucy for his trip to Japan. We are lucky to have Kolten in our family. He is a nice kid, he is nice to me. He does like to tease Kate, but he really loves her. He gets good grades and has kept out of trouble. He likes to keep to himself more these days, and isn't the talker he use to be. I guess that is what happens when you are fourteen. Happy birthday, I love you Kolten!
