another birthday

Today this boy turns thirteen.

That's right, I am officially now the mother of three teenage boys.

I knew this day would come and yet it does not seem real.

Caleb, you are a boy, or is it man, full of life.

You live every day to it's fullest and then some.

On many days this is a blessing and on others you manage to stay in trouble.

You are a hard worker and most times prefer to be the Foreman.

One of my favorite things to watch you do is teach.

You are a good instructor and then allow your student to try without becoming impatient with them.

It is fun to see you eager to lean anything that you can do with your hands.

You will never be bored because you love to learn and do.

Play all of your music for His glory, just remember I love listening too.

It has been a joy to watch you grow, it has required me to do a lot of growing as well.

I am praying you will listen to the voice of God and that you will walk the path that He calls you to.
