Happy Birthday Darrien!
This is Darrien modeling our soccer panda t-shirt. This has been a very popular product and believe it or not he helped create this very design. He turned seven years old today. Happy Panda would like to thank him for his creative ideas and his patience posing for many pictures. The Happy Panda concept was created during his first year of life. It is often a misconception that a big baby will grow to become overweight. Darrien defies that school of thought but continues to be the tallest one in his class. He has increased to size 8-10 youth during this past summer. This past year Darrien had his anoids removed and tubes inserted in his ears. He has regained his hearing to the full extent that it should be. He has recently become an official cub scout and continues to be a fantastic big brother to baby Rex.

Happy Birthday Darrien! I hope you had a great party and I can’t wait to see what awesome things you accomplish this year. Thank you for all your help and patience with Mommy and me as we have embarked on this journey. You are an amazing young man. Rex couldn’t have a better big brother than you. I love you baby boy!
