Well, its official. We have a teenager...we just cannot say that too loud...he doesn't care for that word. :) I don't want him to grow up either!
Words and numbers aside...he is growing up into a great young man, and we are super proud of him.
He is getting a little hard to buy for these days, so we tried to get creative...and, we did buy him some things that he "needs", which fits Jared to a "T"! Always practical that kid is.
He did, however, really enjoy the tent we got him...and it should be fun to watch him set up his own space next time we go camping. We will plan to add to his camping collection, so that when he flys out of the nest, he will have a great start...lets just hope he doesn't need to use it for housing purposes. Tee Hee.
And, what is a holiday without some new Hardy Boys books to add to the collection??!?!?!
Happy Birthday first born...I can't believe that you are growing up so fast. Regardless of the growing pains that you are experiencing and that our relationship occasionally experiences, you mean the world to me and I am so proud of you. You are one of my greatest accomplishments. Thanks for making me smile everyday big guy. You are the bomb.
