Happy 19th Birthday Son #2!
As a teenager with raging hormones and full of angst..
I boldly yelled declared to my poor mother…
that I would NEVER, EVER be rude and thoughtless enough
to give birth to a child in December.
I didn’t lie…
Instead, I gave birth to two!…
Back to back…
Who, along with their mother, have birthdays at “The Most Wonderful Time of the Year!”
Hardly convenient…
But, you, Son #2, are the glue that holds the group together!
Loyal, a friend to all, and consistently being a peacemaker are character qualities
that endear you to everyone you meet.
You are devoted to family…
and a lover of all things Disney…
especially Pixar shorts and Winnie the Pooh.
You consistently practice servant leadership…
and are tireless in your goal of making others feel validated and special.
A tender heart for “little people” as well as the Lord has caused you to serve both faithfully.
You love all things pertaining to theater, and have a zeal for Shakespeare.
Laughing with people ( and getting away with it, I might add)..
Is also one of your “greater” strengths.
Women adore you and can’t wait to” grow up and possibly marry you”…
well, at least one consistently fits this category…
and Dad and I couldn’t be prouder or more privileged to call you our son.
We hope you have a wonderful birthday and that this is your best year yet.
And don’t worry…
When you turn 21…
You’ll be “treated” to the same photo montage and tribute that Son #1 received…
consider yourself warned…
Yeah, I know…you can “hardly wait!”
Love,
Mom
