So our “baby” turned 30 today. That is mind-boggling to me. Now in place of that baby, there’s this young man that stands tall and proud. I am so incredibly blessed to call him my son. To say that he is a joy and delight is an extreme understatement. He has a brilliant mind, a great work ethic, and a wonderful personality to go with his skills. I am so amazed by him that I could burst with pride.
He has been wounded in the battles of life that so many of us go through, but he is standing strong and his faith has never wavered. He has a heart of gold that loves and cares for people that shows, not just through his words, but through his actions. He has accomplished a lot in these first 30 years, but I see even greater things ahead.
I cannot wait to move closer so that we are able to spend time together again. Happy birthday to you, my son. I love you beyond what words can properly express. You are a gift from the Lord. Let your love for God continue to grow and may he always surround you with a hedge of protection. Make God and family your number one priority and may you continue to be a blessing to those around you. And finally, may your Saints always be second only to my Cowboys!
