Hunter's 21st Birthday!

Today we celebrate the birth of Hunter!
Just as we have every September 10th since 1992. 

Our baby boy is a grown man! Not just because the world says at the 'magical' age of 21 he is a man, but because he has matured into a responsible, trustworthy, godly adult. What a pleasure and a joy to be his mom! Words can't express how thankful I am for the gift of this child in our lives! He's been so easy to raise and such fun to know! I love looking back and remembering his childhood. But, I am also truly enjoying him as an adult. At every age and stage I've always said 'this is the best one' and truthfully- each age and stage has been wonderful.

Yet, it's still hard to believe he's 21. I look back and reflect on the moments with great joy and I look forward to the future with great anticipation.

He absolutely is a gift from God and for him ~ I am simply grateful!
