The number 10 represents a DECADE!

10 years ago, June 28th, Heavenly Father gave me 10 perfect little fingers and toes attached to a sweet little boy.  He was 3 weeks early weighing in at 6lbs. 14 oz.  He was a little peanut that fit into his dads baseball cap.  Now that little peanut is as tall as me, tips the scales at 140 and is wearing a men's medium size shirt!

Kyle wanted his birthday to be celebrated with his family.  He just wanted his cousins and grandparents there.  One of the many proud moments of being Ky's mom, when all the family talks and emphasis on being together manifested itself in his simple request.  I couldn't ask for a better kid.  Ky makes me want to be a better person.  He has blessed this family with his patient and kind ways and our family would not be complete without him.  Thanks Kyle for being you!  I love ya! Oh and Happy Birthday, even though that makes me a decade older!
