Happy Birthday, Michael, we love you

Michael, we know your mom is looking down smiling with pride, just as your dad smiles every time he speaks of of how proud he is of you.We all are. 

Have a wonderful birthday, and know we all love you.

Get well soon, Michael, we love you

We hope you feel better soon, and don't have to stay in the hospital too long. You're in our prayers. We love you.

My niece and nephew are growing up fast

My niece, Emily, and nephew, Blake, are growing up very fast.

I know my brother's a proud grandfather of these two cuties. Blake rolled over for the first time Saturday and Emily's so smart for her age  she makes other parents wonder why their kids aren't up to speed. But, it's due to my brother teaching her while he watched her. He did a great job.
