Yesterday Brandon turned 8. He made his rounds asking everyone to sing "Happy Birthday" to him. He said "Dang I'm getting old!!" We took him out to eat at his favorite place and gave him his gifts. He didn't like anything he received because it didn't include a cell phone, vacuum, or carpet shampooer. But he didn't mind too much.
He was just enjoying the fact that it was "His day".

I received this link yesterday from a guy from MMA. It's a great video of Brandon & Tyrone Wright (The fighter who is dedicating his fight to Brandon).
