Bal is my poor little middle child, but he manages. He is more charismatic than any six year old should be. He's been that way since he was a toddler.
Bal rarely cried as a baby. He was content to sit and watch what was going on. When he learned to walk, he made up for lost time. Bal is always exploring or experimenting with something new. (Usually something he's not allowed to have.) He loves to construct things out of paper, tape, and staples. He makes his own books and then writes and illustrates them.
Bal likes people. He has more little girls convinced that they are going to marry him than I thought was possible. He tells women that they are "lovely". He likes to kiss hands and bow when he meets new people. He snuggles up to you so sweetly, that you're pretty sure you could just stay that way forever.
He has an amazing smile.
Bal loves frogs. Since he was a baby he was fascinated with frogs and toads. He has tons of stuffed and plastic frogs, as well as a tankful of Oriental Fire-Bellied Toads. He catches geckos, frogs, and toads, but is amazingly gentle and loving with these slimy reptiles and amphibians. He think they are lovely too.
Bal is going to have something to show this world. I'm not sure what it is yet, but it will be big, beautiful, and amazing like him.

Ummm...I think we might have identical kids...probably not possible, right? The part about "He loves to construct things out of paper, tape, and staples. He makes his own books and then writes and illustrates them." is my son Elijah who is 8...we put these things in his stocking for Christmas...you should try index cards, envelopes, and pipe cleaners also....
