Sam,
I am a month late writing this. It's been a busy summer. On June 1, 2018, you turned the big 7! This has been an awesome year for you. This past year, you started dancing. You took hiphop and tap/ballet. You started piano lessons. You finished kindergarten for the 2nd time, but this time all in Spanish. Your Spanish is really good. Your best friends are Alec and Lewis from school, Parker, and of course, Mattox. You are Mattox are still best friends. In fact, you moved in together in the same room this summer. I pray you continue to be best friends in the year to come.
Sam, you are ADORABLE. You are kind and funny and you talk a lot. You are a peach keeper. You hate conflict, and when you see it coming, you do whatever you can to deflate it. You don't have a lot of tolerance for people who don't follow rules. You are skinny, but you want to be really tough and buff. You are mentally strong. You have a strong desire to get into God's word. You are very detailed in everything you do. You actually have an intense personality, but you are a different kind of intense, so you would only see that if you really paid attention. 7 years old looks good on you. You have a super cute body and your smile takes up your entire face. You just lost your front 2 teeth and your smile is so cute.
Sam, as you grow and become the man that God has called you to be, I pray that you will have the courage and strength to actually be the hands and feet of Christ. I pray that you will do great things for His kingdom. I pray that you will be an instrument, used by God, for His glory. I pray that your dad and I can continually point you to Christ.....for everything else in this world is temporary. I love you from the bottom of my heart. Happy 7th Birthday my boy.
