7


He's 7 today!! He's excited....only nine more years until he can drive! Yep, that's pretty much Clayton in one sentence. All about the driving, cars, trucks, motorcycles....he has loved vehicles since he was one. People used to ask how we got him into them. We really didn't. He just got one (what boy doesn't get a vehicle of some kind early in life) and the interest just grew like wildfire. Fun kiddo!

Happy Birthday, Clay-man! You are one outstanding human being. We are constantly in awe of your heart, your love for other people (even those you've never even met), and your willingness to put others before yourself. Your faith is amazing and inspiring. Your smile is infectious. You work hard and play harder. You are kind and generous. You take the lead when asked, but know how to be a team player. You are excellent at math. Your engineering mind marvels me. You are so much like your Daddy, but you're your own awesome creation of God. The honor of being your mother is....well, I'm at a loss for words on that one.

We are proud of you. We love the person you are and the person you're becoming. Keep looking to God. May He bless all your days.
