Wesley's Turning 15

Today I have a son who’s turning 15.  I can’t believe it!  It feels as if they are growing up too quickly.  Here are a few um, make that a lot of pictures from this past year.  Excuse me while I reminisce. 🙂

Hunting and hunting camp is always a big thrill for him…

After all, he is very social…

He’s not afraid to try the unusual on his dinner plate…

And Scrabble, although so very educational, is an exercise in patience when playing with him.  We wait, wait and wait some more as he finds that perfect word…

He sometimes is a little too enthusiastic in his pursuits…

We know he’s really focusing on his task when we see his tongue. We’re sure he’ll bite it off someday…

He’s taught Justus and Audrey how to ride their bikes without training wheels. Look at the size of bike he chose for Audrey! Check out that tongue – again…

He plays the part of pig farmer once a year for 4-H…

Sometimes he even plays the part of spy…

Of course, there’s always the competition of seeing who’s the tallest and strongest…

Sweetest of all though is the great friendship he has with his brother.

Happy Birthday to a son whose peals of laughter always bring a smile to my face.
