Happy birthday, Zach!


It's the strangest thing.  I now have a kid who is 20.  I used to be 20 and it doesn't seem like it was that long ago. 

There are not enough sappy sentiments in the world to say how I really feel about this grown-up kid but I'll try. . . (not in any particular order!). . .

This kid is smart and wise.
He is kind and empathetic.
He is responsible and reliable.
He is a fun big brother and a caring son.
He loves his grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins dearly.
He wrestles with thoughts and ideas with an open mind yet with grounded values.
He is willing to change his mind if the situation calls for it.
He loves God.
He tries to be like Jesus. (He's even been told he looks like Him. . . )
He reads his Bible like the Best Seller that it is.
He will make someone an incredible husband someday.
He loves to learn.
He loves his mom.  :)
He still plays with his sister.
He impresses his father.
He is handsome.
He makes me laugh.  Often.

There is so much more I could say but I mostly want to say that I have loved him from the moment I found out about him.  I'm so very thankful that I get to be his mom . . .
