Happy Birthday Jared!

What a handsome young man you've become; strong, courageous, intelligent, caring, friendly, creative and imaginative.
I remember how you impressed Coach Hanif the other day.  He was explaining to you why squids were such fast swimmers and how you could use their techniques to swim faster.  You listened carefully and then commented that "Sperm Whales must be even better swimmers since they eat giant squid."  You are intelligent and have learned the art of logic.
When you had to have a bunch of blood drawn the other day you were very positive.  You walked in with a smile, never flinched and kept up a friendly conversation the whole time and kept that beautiful smile on your face.  You are courageous.

Daddy asked you the other day what you would do with $100, you said you'd split it with Lance.  Daddy asked why and you said "because he's my brother."  Daddy then asked "What about Titus?", you said you and Lance would get $40 each and Titus $20. Then Daddy asked why Titus would get less you said "because he has a really tiny piggy bank!".  You are such a good brother.

Your imagination knows no bounds.  I love the creative way you play out all the different things you'd like to be some day, especially because each one represents a way you can help people; fireman, doctor, teacher, cook, etc. You are so caring and thoughtful.



You've got BIG PLANS for your future: Lego creator, Navy flight deck personnel, and equestrian rider/mounty to name a few.  You are imaginative.

You woke up early the other morning and excitedly explained to us about how you found this "magic button" on the "Amazon Instant View" that let you watch any show you wanted.  I smiled and explained it wasn't "magic", it charged money to my account each time.  I smiled because its nice to know though you are growing up fast you still are my innocent and beautiful boy!

We LOVE you more than you can ever imagine.  We are so thankful that God gave us you to have as our son.  We pray you will always walk in His path.  We look forward to seeing all that He has planned for you.
