Most of you know Adam..... He turned 17 in May. What a kid. I can't believe how time has past. It seems like it was just yesterday when he was smashing my flowers in the front yard, writing with markers all over his bedroom wall, sneaking into the candy jar.... I remember buying him happy meals and trying to get him to eat it because he was so excited about playing on the play yard at McDonalds... I was going through my cedar chest the other day and found his old blankie... OK some of you, don't mention to Adam you know about his blankie..... He also had a stuffed animal cow named Emily... She had a bit of a broken neck and her eyeballs all scratched off from washing and playing.... Now he has bigger and better toys, like guitars, a jeep, IPods..... He is such a special boy. He loves me dearly and I know it. He tries to make me happy all the time...He thinks of me, most of the time, first.... Now how many of you can say that.... Yes, I am a proud mom for sure. He has so much to look forward to, like college, career, great opportunities with life, and yes girls... That one I choose to not think about too often... He is so awesome with older people. He always has been. One of his best friends is in his 90's. Most older folk just tolerate a teen, but with Adam they seem to actually enjoy his visits.... I get a kick out of watching him with different ages. The girls his age, well lets just say awkward. Around his siblings, he is just out right impatient and annoyed most of the time. With Jack, his ol' pal he is just absorbing his wisdom. He is very respectful to all, even when he doesn't want to be. That, I have to say is more than I could do.. He is so special to me. I love him with all my heart and my prayer for him is to enjoy everyday life. Never to doubt himself. Always have faith and go with God and serve him well. God made a special kid here and I hope I have raised him the way God wanted. He is truely a special boy and I am so proud of him. Although he has told me that he is sick of goats and WILL NOT be milking for me... We will see who wins this battle??!! He loves me...He WILL milk.... Well enough bragging about the greatest kid alive, aside from my other 4 children whom are totally cool....... I will get off of my soap box and get on with my cleaning. God Bless!
