Yes, today we have another Birthday !!!!

The oldest son of the house is now 17...What a scary age huh? I have to say that I am very blessed. He has been a wonderful kid. Never really gave me hell much at all. I had the honors of coming into his life when he was around 8 or so. Even then, he was still a good kid. He's the "oldest" brother of many, and is a wonderful role model for them all. He works hard at what ever it is that he wants and achieves it. He's a competitive kid but not mean. The rest of the siblings look up to him for just about everything, and if I don't have an answer than they go to him to get one. He too, is a lot like Bear Baby, as far as his compassion goes. He'll never screw a person over.

Sometimes I feel bad, for I didn't birth him. I wish I can tell him all of the stories that I tell the rest of them, about his pregnancy and what time of the day he was born. How big he was..etc.. These are stories that he very much deserves to hear. Stories that I know so very few of.
