Happy 15th Birthday Jakob

On Thursday Jakob turned 15!! (that makes me feel old!). He was on young mens camp at the time so he had to wait until Friday night for his pressies. I was surprised when he asked for one of his presents - it was a subscription to 'National Geographic' magazine. so he got that plus other presents to keep that ever inquisitive brain of his ticking over!!
One of his presents was a box of one of his favourite cereals.

an extremely hard link puzzle.....he hasn't cracked it yet!

an IQ circle puzzle...And of course no birthday is right without cake..... chocolate ripple in this case....

10 great things about Jakob
  1. His inquisitive nature.
  2. His unusual sense of humour - very quick wit.
  3. His ability to learn.
  4. The example he is to his younger siblings.
  5. He is always so self assured, (this can also drive me balmy).
  6. The way he suceeds at whatever he puts his mind to.
  7. His thirst for knowledge.
  8. That I can talk to him as an adult.
  9. He is very responsible and I know that I can trust him.
  10. His academic excellence
