Dear Matthew and Toby
Well Matt, I can't believe you're 5! How were you born half a decade ago?!
We celebrated with a big party at home the weekend before, with all your family and friends. You had asked us to have a reptile party so we organized for a reptile team to come out and give you and your friends a 'show and tell' experience which included three snakes and a lizard. You got to hold all of the reptiles and we got some awesome photos.
We had made a cool (your words) snake cake all together the night before, which you and your dad helped decorate. We also did a piniata (which seemed indestructible) which you enjoyed crushing at the end of the party (see photos below). You had a great time :)
A couple of days later on your actual birthday you woke up and opened up your presents from us, and especially loved your new Where's Wally book and scooter. You have since mastered the scooter like a pro and love zipping around on it.
Being a Monday, you also went to school and got to be the class Star of the Day and handed out skittles to everyone at the end of the day.
We hope you enjoyed your birthday beautiful boy. We are so proud of the loving and kind person you are. We are so so lucky to be your parents, as is Toby to be your brother. This past year has been so wonderful, you seem to have settled into school, have gained a heap of confidence and your knowledge of the world is growing at lightning speed. I am especially proud of how you have adopted a growth mindset, how grateful you are generally, how you show endless patience and love for Toby and your friends and how you are so open to learning about new things. We can't wait to see what the next year holds for you.
Love you both,
