Twelve years ago, my white-as-milk, red-headed son, Blake, was born. Most of the time I call him, "Good Lookin'." Blake is brilliant, sensitive, compassionate, caring, tender hearted, precocious, curious, a sore loser, a high achiever, and handsome. He loves soccer, Wii, Playstation, plays saxophone in his school band, takes piano lessons, is a GATE student, and can't wait to get to his Sunday School class each week. I love this kid beyond measure but the greatest thing, he loves me in return.

HAPPY 12th BIRTHDAY, BLAKE!!!

  7. It's hard to believe he is 12. He was just a baby, barely talking and counting when I moved for grad. school. It seems he should still be that small.
