Look Who's 18!...

                                       

                             

My "baby" is 18 today!  Oh my!  I don't have any little ones any more.  My children are legal adults now.  Wow!  They are grown.  One is pregnant and the other is 18.  They have grown up so quickly.  They have lived with their Dad most of their lives, so perhaps it seemed like they grew more quickly than they really had and more than I had anticipated they would.  I only saw them summers and some winter vacations occasionally.  Sometimes when they came for a visit they grew inches and looked very different from the previous visit.  Phone calls have kept us in close contact, but there is something about being able to "see" and "touch" a child and be a part of there every day lives.  So I wanted to wish Matt a very, very HAPPY and STUPENDOUS birthday today!!!!  Happy 18th, Matteo!!!!

 

                                 

                                           Happy Birthday to you!
                                           Happy Birthday to you!
                                           Happy Birthday, dear Matthew...
                                          Happy Birthday to you!!!!!!


                            
I LOVE YOU, MATTY!!!!!!!!!!!

Incidentally, it is also Matt's brother's birthday the day before his.  He turned four yesterday.  He is the son of Matt's Dad.   I wanted to wish him a happy birthday, too!  Happy Birthday, Sammy!!!!  I love you, too!!!!

                       

Have a blast this week, guys!! xoxox

I will be back on later today to post "Wordplay" Wednesday! xox
