and it's official!

Happy Birthday Ryan!

It's hard to believe that this is the last year in his "tweens." Next year I will have two teenagers in the house...oh dear Lord!

Ryan we couldn't be prouder of you!

Your hard work at school has rewarded you with great grades,

your dedication to your trumpet has led you to first chair,

your persistence at hockey and baseball has helped make you a great teammate and player,

leading you to the States in hockey and to kick butt on the baseball field.

You should be proud of your accomplishments this year, you've worked hard and your efforts have paid off!

Continue to be who you are-a great friend, kind, compassionate, loving caring, and spirited!

I am at awe at how you set your goals and strive to reach for them!

Continue to believe in yourself and you will be on to great things.

Enjoy your special day!

We love you tons!
