Our baby boy is 10 years old. That makes me feel old. 5 years until he starts driving, 8 years until he graduates from high school. He has less years left at home than what he has spent with us already. He really is growing into a wonderful young man. He still is that driven, determined, emotional boy that was born 10 days late. Not a day goes by that he doesn't make us laugh or scratch our heads wondering why he did or said something. He is a whiz is school, a sports fanatic and a protective older brother! One sister loves him to pieces and the other just thinks he is a boy with cooties. One thing is for sure, his Daddy and I are so proud to be his mommy and daddy. Here is to another year and another interview.
