8 is officially the age your little guy isn't a little guy anymore. It feels so much older, he's so much larger, his words are so much more mature. When did this happen? As much as we love to see the kids grow, and change and mature - this one just seemed way different than all the others. Gavin is quite the young man always setting an example for others, often helping those in need, and definitely looking for ways to earn respect and gain responsibility from adults. I suppose those are some typical characteristics of a first-born. But he does them very well.
And then we can't forget that he is just 8, and a boy. So what kind of cake did he request for his birthday? POOP CAKE! A poop-emoji. Boys will be boys. He loves reading more than you could ever imagine; and his favorites right now are Captain Underpants (which we had to temporarily ban from the house due to the potty talk), Dog Man, and Harry Potter. He also excels at math and spelling in school.
