Today my oldest grandson, Connor, turns 7 years old!! I am totally amazed and somewhat frightened at just how quickly time seems to be passing these days. It truly feels like only yesterday that I was giving birth to Connor's mom and now she has a child turning seven! It is so crazy! I was definitely a very young first time mom, and so was she, but it still doesn't seem possible at all that I am already old enough to have grown children, much less a grandchild who is quickly approaching double digits! **sigh**
Oh well, they say having children young keeps you young. I used to think I agreed, but lately I'm not so sure. I have been feeling mighty old!
Connor celebrated his birthday this past weekend at Cochran Mill Nature Center. He and all the other kids invited had a fun time playing with all the different animals and wild creatures they have there.
Here are a few pictures from his party that my daughter shared...

Harper was born on the very same day, just 30 minutes later!
Don't they look like twins??

Connor, I hope you have a wonderful birthday today! I can't wait to see you soon!
Love,
Mimi

P.S. Very cool that we are now both Lady Bloggers! Good to see you there too!
Your grandson is such a handsome little fella already! And your daughter is gorgeous!!!!
Thanks for sharing this special day with us.
Haven't been visiting blogs much lately - been super busy for awhile, but trying to come back and "hit" my faves. Still pray for you guys every day. (((HUGS)))
Aww, what a handsome little man you have!
Happy Birthday! My mom worked for a Conservation Guild as a volunteer when I was growing up and they had a Nature Center I adored. I wouldn't have been brave enough to hold a gater though!
Returning your visit from Lady Bloggers! :)
I can't imagine being a grandma. What a wonderful blessing. And yes, they do look like twins.
Blessings!
So handsome!! Looks like it was a terrific birthday full of love and fun :)
It's my first visit to your blog, and I can't believe you're a gramma. Wow!
I'll be back. Thank you for opening your life to us and for sharing your faith. Even those of us who have faith need a dose from others now and again.
