This is my tribute to Jared who just turned 9!
The whole world celebrates on Jared's birthday, whether they know it or not! His birthday is on New Year's Eve! This year I took him on a "date". We ate lunch at Mimi's cafe,
went to the mall to try out this over priced jumping gadget,
(Sorry about the sideways video!)
and then to the music store to play every instrument in the place!Whenever Jared plays he draws a crowd, and this was no exception.
All the employees came to hear him, then the director of education came and took him to the back where they have a concert grand for recitals and such, and invited him to come and practice whenever he can. 
Then the owner of the store had to come and meet him also. Jared enjoys the fame! He asked for tap shoes for his birthday! And lo, here they are.
(another sideways one!) Testing them out.
Ever since he was born at a tough time in our life's journey, Jared has been my "joy and my song". He fills our home with music and humor and piles of Kinex! I'm so grateful to have him in our family.

He is amazing at the piano...I want you to post another video of him playing an entire piece! And he is pretty snazy with the tap shoes too...he obviously has a musical talent and carries a lot of rhythm. And what a handsome boy he is too! HAPPY BIRTHDAY JARED!!
I am glad that you are blogging so we can keep up with you and your kids. It is so fun to see how your kids are turning out and see what great talents that have developed...makes me excited to see what my kids will be like in another 5-10 years.
Happy Birthday Jared! I remember when he was born! (And the look on your face when you dropped Marisa and Eric off in the middle of the night while you were in labor!):O) Was it really that long ago? Please tell him how impressed I am with all of his talents! Truly, he is a special kid.
I remember coming to see Jared right after he was born. I knew then that he was pretty special! Happy Birthday Jared!
Jared I just have to say that you are definitely musically talented!! I hope someday really soon you can give me a personal concert! And when you are famous please remember family discounts=)
