Happy 12th Birthday, Quinn!

Quinn is 12 years old today. One more year and he is officially a teenager. Oh My!

I wanted to give you a view of what Quinn is like at 12, so he and I sat down to come up with this list...

Favorites...
Electronic - Playing his iTouch (it is hard to get him to put it down, but he is usually pretty respectful when we ask him to do so)
Food - Mazzio's Pepperoni Calzone (he can actually eat a whole one by himself)
Color - Gold or Black
Friend - Trenton
Thing to Do - Racing BMX
Pet - our dog, Shadow (sorry, Sookie, he says you are in second place)
TV Show - Naruto
Book - Tunnels (he has actually talked me into reading this one and I am almost done...I love it! I can't wait to finish it and move to book 2)
Cullen - Alice
Movie - Avatar
Song - Welcome Home by Coheed and Cambria

Then, I asked him to sum up who he thinks he is in a few sentences. This is what he came up with:

"I am a fun, energetic kid, who doesn't mind people picking on him. I don't care what people think of me. I am who I am and no one can change it."

Ashton wanted to say a few things about her brother, so here goes....

"Quinn is a good brother. He plays with me a lot..well, some...only when we make bets and he loses. He loves me and that's all I care. I always pester him, but I am trying to stop. He is the best brother I have ever had...well, the only one I have. He is the most willingly protective brother. He will do anything for me. I love him."
