Happy Birthday!

My first born (aka "the man child") is now 15. Fifteen! When I downloaded his birthday photos, my first thought was, "Look how grown up he looks." Ah, where does the time go?

Justin is very excited about being 15, mostly because he can now apply for a learner's permit. Like most moms, I have mixed feeling about him driving... in some ways, I'd love to have another driver in the house so he can help run errands and get to his practices and activities on his own.

In other ways, I worry about keeping him safe. And I think I lack the nerves of steel to be a patient driving instructor! I think Dad may be the better driving coach... we'll see.
Justin is a confident, intelligent, responsible young man. He is a good example to others and we are so proud of the righteous choices he is making in his life!

Happy birthday, Justin! We love you! You'll always be our little red-headed boy!
