I cannot believe that my baby boy is 13 years old today! Happy Birthday Buddy, I am so lucky to have you and am so proud of you! It just seems like yesterday that I labored for almost 2 days to birth you! It was completely worth it.

I love you to the Moon, Stars and Back Again. T w/ Barbara Jean Summer 2009

5. you are a wonderful big brother and demonstrated that a few weeks ago when E had 2 friends over that didn't get along and you took one of the friends, entertained her. You helped her deal with the 3's a crowd.
