Mattox,
Today you turned 10. You have had an amazing year. This school year you started at Western Union Elementary School. You learned Spanish last summer and started this school year in an immersion class as a 3rd grader. You had an awesome teacher named Ms. Soto. She was perfect for you. You made great friends. You made amazing grades and rocked the end of grade tests. You got an award for having a great attitude and we couldn't be more proud.
This year you have also been an amazing brother. Sam and Eli both love you so much and look up to you. You are caring and compassionate and responsible.
This year you played basketball and started swimming. You also love video games and are pretty good at them. I can't believe it has been 10 years. God knew exactly what He was doing when He gave us you. Your kindness is one of the main reasons our home runs smoothly. You aren't always easy, but you are pretty awesome. I love how you view the world and I have no doubt you are going to grow up to be an awesome and intelligent Godly man. Keep saying "yes" to God and trust Him with your questions and doubts and He is strong enough to handle them. I love you!

Sam Turns 8!
Dear Sam,
This past weekend you turned 8 years old. This past year has been a neat year. You are growing up so much and I get to know your personality better. This year you lost your front teeth. Then you walked around several months with an adorable smile with no front teeth. Now your adult front teeth are coming in and you look so old. This has been the first full year you have done ballet. You like it, and I think you are pretty good at it. I think it is so cool that you do ballet. You are in an all boys program at The Charlotte Ballet Academy. You have made some good friends there this year.
You had a great school year. I am pretty sure you had a perfect report card every time you got one. You won a character award (Terrific kid) at the beginning of the year, then won the Eagle Award for good grades and behavior towards the end of the year. You and Mattox are totally best friends. You both are into Pokemon, video games, and recently into the Avengers movies. You love everyone in our family so deeply. You are an intense kid in some ways. You are convicted when it comes to the Bible and your walk with the Lord. You take that very seriously. You are a good friend. This year, your teacher tried to embarrass a friend of yours that cries a lot and you refused to participate in it. I am not sure I have ever been prouder of you. You are loyal and seem to really always try to do the right thing. You are also very concerned about the environment. I couldn't be more proud of the boy you are. You literally own my heart and I think you are exactly what I needed and wanted as a mom. I hope you have a great year being 8. I pray you continue to walk with the Lord and continue reading your Bible. Thanks for loving everyone so easy and for being such a sweet boy. I love you more than I could ever explain with words. Happy 8th Birthday buddy!
Love Always,
Mom

Happy 3rd Birthday Eli
Eli,
I can't believe you are 3! This past year has been so much fun. You learned to talk so quickly and so well, that it has been like having a 5 year old in the house. This year you have tried some new things. You started a little dance class and you also started preschool. All of your teachers love you. You are much better for them than you are for me and your dad. You are a rule follower at school and dance, but then come home and want to be calling all the shots. You like to boss everyone around. You love being outside and especially love golf and baseball. You enjoy swinging at the park and you love music. You memorized Sam's hiphop dance this year and performed it everywhere you went to get attention. It was both adorable and hilarious! You loved the Disney Cruise and especially loved meeting the characters. You haven't stopped talking about it since we came home. Your 3rd birthday party was a Spiderman party. You love superheroes, especially Spiderman. Eli, you are happy and funny. You love to pray and your prayers are fierce. You keep us all on our toes and God has big plans for you. Everywhere you go people comment on you. Happy birthday my sweet little man. I love you so much...you will never understand the love I have for you.
Love,
Mom
