Now We Are Six

Now We Are Six

~ A.A. Milne

When I was one,
I had just begun.


 When I was two,
I was nearly new.

 When I was three,
I was hardly me.


 When I was four,
I was not much more.


 When I was five,
I was just alive.


 But now I am six,
I'm as clever as clever.


 So I think I'll be six now
for ever and ever. 

  

And a good time was had by all! Especially the birthday boy!

Six is a great age. It's right around then that they start to develop personality traits and give you a glimpe of how they might grow up. Enjoy them while you may!

I still can't believe Connor is 6. And he looks so much more grown up, in the six year old view of grown up. It must be exciting watching him grown. This is a such a cute post and way to celebrate a big birthday Jeanie. Happy weekend. hugs-Erika

Whoops, I got distracted by a Connor on the tv and meant to write Carson not Connor. Sorry about that!

Roxie said...

As a former kindergarten teacher, I have no doubt that five and six year olds are the best! Enjoy every moment with that little guy!

Pamela said...

What a sweet post!

shoreacres said...

I loved this! "Six forever" doesn't sound like the worst thing in the world, especially if it comes with smiles like that! It's always fun to look back, just as it's been fun to follow along on the kiddos' development over the years!
