HAPPY BIRTHDAY TYLER!!!

I just can't believe this guy is 11 already! Am I old enough to have an eleven year old? 11 years ago he made me a Mom (okay, so 11 years ago yesterday...) in one fell swoop we went from a young couple to parents. Gone were the days when we could just think about ourselves, Tyler was on the scene and he has been so patient with us as we've learned about this crazy thing called parenthood. A few years ago he got frustrated with us and complained about being our 'test kid'...he is so right! Everything we do with him we do for the first time and hope we do it right... Thanks T for being a really good test kid! He is such a great person and we're happy he's ours. He is growing up way too fast; he just started his last year of elementary school, is out of cub scouts, and instead of a themed birthday party just wanted 'some of the guys to come over for a barbecue and some ball'. HAPPY BIRTHDAY TYLER! WE LOVE YOU!
