Wow!!! I can't believe you are turning 15. It seems like it wasn't too long ago that you were just a little guy. Now you are in high school, playing football, and able to grow some serious pirate hair on your face. It blows my mind. Your dad and I are very proud of the young man you are becoming and we see glimpses of the adult man that you will become. I thought for your birthday I would list 15 things that your dad and I love and admire about you. Don't go getting a big head over it, just know that we love you very much! Are you ready?
1. You love Jesus
2. You are a team player
3. You dream BIG
4. You are good with little kids
5. You are not too big to hug your mom
6. You are passionate about the things you love
7. You get excited about sports
8. You have a great memory
9. You are very helpful, especially when it comes to lifting things
10. You love your Mt. Dew, football, and video games
11. You are handsome
12. You really appreciate good food
13. You are a hard worker
14. You say funny stuff (especially when you don't mean to)
15. You are a good big brother
I hope you have a great birthday. I am excited for you for this next year. You will be a sophmore, play football again (hopefully varsity) and learn to drive (picture my scared face). We can't wait to go on the journey with you.
We love you Alex!!
Very nice post. I love the idea of listing the things we love from our children. I shall do just that. Love Claudine
