Happy Birthday My Billy Boy

Today we had a family birthday party for Billy's 15th birthday. It was a beautiful day and we were able to spend time outside in the cabana. Even though the pool isn't open yet, it didn't stop Joe and Max (the jeffrey's puppy) from playing in the water.

Here's just 15 Billy facts in no particular order.

When Billy was 2, he would always say "eat eat" when he was hungry. He loves chicken, mashed potatoes and gravy and would eat only that if he could.

Billy was my baby for 5 years before Joe was born and he will always be my baby Billy forever.

Everyday when Billy comes home from school, he never fails to ask me how my day was and he really wants to know.

He is my tallest son and at 15, he's 6"1 and will most likely be at least 6"4 by the time he's 18 years old.

He has an amazing quick wit about him.

He puts up with so much abuse from Joe and usually takes it pretty well.

He's definitely a chick magnet.

He is the "guitar hero" pro at our house.

He is a great skate boarder.

He loves just being home with his family.

He can pick a lock in record time.

Occasionally, I will still wake up and find him sleeping on the floor next to my bed.

He has such a good and caring heart.

He's best friends with everyone and truly cares about their feelings.

He has such a positive attitude even when he finds things difficult. He will say, "Mom, don't worry I can do it". I have no doubt that Bill will do whatever his heart leads him to do.

I love you my Billy Boy, and I'm incredibly proud of the young man that you are.
