Happy Birthday Nick!

And in a blink of an eye Nick is 17 !

Where does the time go!!!! [ insert a long sigh]

I know you usually run from my camera and my blog :) But today is your birthday so I am going to write you a thank you card for all that you bring to my life.


~Thank you for being the first born and letting Mom experiment on you!!!!! Being an only child, I had zero experience with babies but you were aways such a trooper!

~Thank you for teaching me to be selfless. When they handed you to me wrapped up in that blue baby blanket I knew my life was no longer my own :)

~Thank you for being honest and trustworthy. You are going to make an awesome husband and father one day in the far ,far ,FAR future ;)


~Thank you for making my job easy. You are such a great kid! When you have been faced with a fork in the road you always choose the right way :)

~Thank you for opening your heart to Ava and Pei. Your ability to love with all your heart makes me so proud. BTW, Pei is completely taken by her biggest brother. You can make that little girl smile like no one else :)

~Thank you for stepping forward and helping when you see someone in need ,especially me.

~Thank you for just being you! As I watch you grow into a man I see so many wonderful qualities emerging. You bless my life everyday and I love you more than you will ever know . And never forget no matter how much bigger you are than me ...



YOU WILL ALWAYS BE MY BABY!!!!!

I LOVE YOU !!!!!!!!
