Happy Birthday to You.....

Twenty two years ago!  It was a Friday, just like today, a  rainy and wet day in Georgia, when two awesome babies were placed in our arms.  What an awesome gift from a gracious God!

For the last 22 years we have had the privilege of going from changing diapers, to chasing toddlers, to dressing for t-ball games, to plays, concerts, to football games to proms, to graduations to weddings.  It went by just that fast...

But in between were indescribable moments.  Moments of indescribable joy.  The moments of watching God form you into the amazing men you have become.  Men of compassion, men of courage and men of principle.

Men who love their parents, their brother and his family, their wives and their Lord.  Thank you for the awesome privilege of being your mom.  There are many blessings in this life, some are finite, only for a season, some are a show of status, or a concrete thing that you can see or touch. But the things that last are not always seen, they are felt. They are moments that can not be taken away. That is what parenthood is.. How blessed we are to have had a front row seat in watching you grow into fine men who we are proud to call our sons!

Celebrate your day!

Happy Birthday, Andrew and Caleb!
