11

Happy 11th Birthday Nathan!!!

How the heck did you get to be so old? How the heck did I get to be so old for that matter!
Nathan is a wonderful kid. An easy baby from the start. Our first experience with parenthood such a joy with a boy that was all smiles and slept like an angel from the get go. He was a clever little lad who kept us in stitches over his expressions. He did assert himself quite strongly around four years but never was 'horrible'. (or do those memories just fade?)

Nathan loves to be a help to people. He doesn't balk when I ask him to help with with various chores. He's an excellent gardener, an avid bookworm, a gaming enthusiast and a wonderful son, brother, grandson, nephew, and friend.
We look forward to seeing Nathan move from his boyhood into a young man. Those hormones are already stirring and we can see things are going to be pretty interesting around here for quite a while!
Happy Birthday Nate....we love you!

A great big brother the first time around....just as he is now with Liam

A handsome boy!


He can be intense at times!

But is full of love and affection.

My three wonderful boys!

Loving your quote of the month...

If you want your children to turn out well, spend twice as much time with them, and half as much money.
