Happy 9th Birthday Padawan Learner!



My little boy is nine today!

This afternoon the birthday boy and 15 friends (yes, I know, way too many) will go bowling. Having started at a new school this year he wanted an equal representation of friends from both schools and he has been indulged. Will I survive 16 crazy nine year-olds at a bowling alley? Who knows...

In the tradition started last year I present Padawan Learner's answers to The Birthday Questionnaire:


How old are you? Nine

What is your favourite colour? Yellow

If you could be an animal, which animal would it be? A Cheetah because I'd want to be a FAST animal.

What is your favourite food? Pizza

What is your favourite drink? Milo

What do you want to be when you grow up? Rugby Player (Wallaby) and a Scientist

Where is your favourite place to visit on Holidays? Thredbo

What is your favourite subject at school? Maths

What subject to you like the least at school? HSIE (Human Society in Its Environment, or in 1970s terminology - social studies)

Favourite book? Just Macbeth by Andy Griffiths

Favourite TV show? Ben 10:Alien Force and The Secret Saturdays

Favourite Movie? Transformers: The Revenge of the Fallen

Favourite music? Pirates of the Caribbean: The Lost Pearl (theme music)

What or who makes you laugh the most? Andy Griffiths

If you could change your name, what would you change it to? Tom

Happy Birthday Padawan Learner!!!!!!

Andy Griffiths knows how to get a nine year old boy reading!

We should get him and the Climber together I'm sure they'd get on! Happy Birthday to your Padawan Learner, and like Tracey I hope he gets lots of strikes and spares at the party. As for you, I just hope you survive the party. Congratulations to you both!

Happy Birthday to a young lion !(Leo) close enough to a cheetah methinks!

Happy birthday to your 9yo! My daughter G will be turning 9 on Aug 30th. They're really growing up aren't they?

Happy 9th Birthday, 'Tom' ;) Hope your party was excellent

My nephew was 8 on the 1st, so I'm guessing PL is a pretty cool kid!

Happy birthday PL!
My soon to be nine year old read PL's answers and thought they were "cool". Perhaps the playdate with the Climber needs to be a threesome?

Happy Birthday PL! He and J.T. would get on quite well. We have had ONE guest over for a spend the night and the house looks like it has been pillaged by a conquering army. Good idea to take 16 9-year olds OUT instead of having them over.

I'm glad you explained HSIE... I never would have guessed.

Happy Birthday!

Can't wait til my girls are old enough to do this...xox

Can't believe I missed it, I've been thinking of PL and his birthday approaching for a couple of weeks.

Good to see somethings don't change - I'm sure I recognise at least a few of those answers from last year.

Please pass on a belated birthday wish from us.
