What Brendan Had to Say on His Sixth Birthday

My really big guy is  . . . really big. He turns six today. But he has really looked and acted like a six year-old for years. He continues to be the sweetest, kindest, coolest and most handsome boy a momma could ask for. Here is what is on his mind this year.

What does our family like to do together?
Have fun and celebrate. There is this commercial where this guy is sitting at a table and he says, "Let's celebrate." Me: Does that remind you of us? B: "Yep."

Who are you going to marry? I am not sure.

Anything else you want to talk about now that you are almost six? The only thing I really want to tell you is I need to know how much dollars the ice rebel trooper set is. That is what I want to know. It is a set that comes with Hans Solo and the Tauton and I do not know how much it costs. Can we at LEGOs on the computer now?

Takeaway from this interview: Life for Brendan is pretty much about star wars LEGOs. If you are interested in his answers from last year, you can find them here.
