Birthday Boys

For those of you who know me this is my crazy time of year. With Kelsey's birthday on the 4th and Kyle and Zach's birthday on the 7th. We are no longer into the crazy themed birthday parties that come with young age (thank goodness) but we do want to recognize each year we are blessed to have these kids.
Kyle is turning 19 and wow where did the time go. It feels like just yesterday we were bringing him home from the hospital. I am so proud of Kyle. He has turned into a caring, hard working, patient man. He is quick to encourage his siblings and quick to hug his mother (LOVE THAT). He was always concerned about his grandpa, checking in on him when he could. He has grown so much over the year he has been away at school. Family has become so important to him. We love you Kyle and are blessed to call you our son.
Zach is turning 13. Teenager!! But seriously, Zach is a joy to have around. Smiley, happy, sensitive, creative. Zach is growing into a young man and we are so delighted in him. Loves to spend time as a whole family, even if it is just watching t.v. Still not to cool to give his mom a hug. We love seeing his creative brain go to work on his drawings and cartoons. I think we have killed a forest of trees to keep up with his hobby. We love you Zach and are so happy you belong to us.
