Daniel turns 18


Eighteen years ago today we had the most adorable baby boy.
He weighed 6lbs, 1 ounce and was 19 inches long. He had strawberry blond hair and beautiful blue eyes. His eye are still blue and his hair stayed blond. On our first night home from the hospital we stayed awake calling all of our friends and family because we were scared to go to sleep, we wanted to stay awake to watch over him and protect him. Yes, we finally did go to sleep but 18 years later the desire to watch him and protect him is still present. However, he has grown into an incredible young man, one we couldn't be more proud of and with great anticipation we are excited to see what God has in store for him in the next chapter of his life.

Okay - you've got me interested now, and I want to know what size this little baby grew up to be. From the very nice pictures, I would guess him to be over 6 foot ? Daniel is my favorite boy name of all times. It was my firstborn son's name, and we always called him `Danny.' Your son is a handsome young man, and I hope you all enjoy his senior year. Time passes so quickly.

You know, that's a really great shot of Daniel. I'm thinking you must have an awesome photographer:-)
