Smile What a difference 11 years makes!
Look who is celebrating his 11th birthday today! I can't believe how handsome he is, and how grown up he looks to me. And, although I do enjoy editing my photos, he is starting to get acne and I ummm, left it alone because it's part of who he is right now. ♥



He has been a huge blessing in my life. He's funny, kind, generous and smart. He's in 6th grade, reading at a 9th/10th grade level. He's analytical and creative. He makes good grades, has enough sense to stay out of trouble, and stands his ground when faced with tough decisions. I don't know what the upcoming teenage years will bring us, but I know Nathan is the best 11 year old that a mom could ask for.

Happy Birthday Nathan!

What a wonderful blessing for you Lena. You are definitely one proud Mama.

(I agree with not "fixing" the photo too much. He looks great just how he is).
