Today Evan turned 6 years old. After giving him a few birthday surprises this morning, my mom told Evan that he ought to thank Mama on his birthday. She told him about how long she and my dad had to wait at the hospital for him to be born. Indeed. I remember that day. We’ve come a long way from that “get this kid out already” day. We have been quite blessed these six years. We’re thankful as each day is another helping of God’s grace to us.

Happy Birthday, Evan!
I can’t believe he’s 6 years old already! I still remember visiting you guys at the hospital that summer evening after work.
Miss you guys!

Yvonne, yes the years have sped by. Occasionally I’ll look at Evan and am so grateful that kids are not born at their 6 year old size.
I believe we’ll be seeing you guys soon, right?
