happy 14th Ben!

IMG_3375You’ve entered your second year of teenage-o-rama-dama!

Say what?!?

The time probably goes slow for you, but for Grammy and me, it’s believably unbelievable  that our first-born grandchild -born April 30, 2003 – is now 14 years old.  How did that happen? Seriously, the years have zipped by like a panther running wild.

We’re darn proud of who you are and who you’re becoming.

A killer sense of humor.  Easy going style. Smarts (congrats on making the Honor Roll). Good looks. Friendliness. Kindness. Strong values.  All these remarkable attributes will add up, join forces and give you a competitive edge as you push through your teenage years and become a young man.  You’re the real deal and a great life is unfolding.

Push, try, care and always believe in yourself, that makes everything possible.  Don’t EVER compare yourself to anyone else… no one else is like you, what makes you tick is what makes you special.

love you Ben, happy birthday!

One of you guys put an empty Easter basket on your head, and soon the rest followed… just in time for my annual group photo.  Hey Jack, you gotta let go of the crown jewels for important photos like this.  Happy Easter crazy kids.
