Coley

September the 3rd is Cole's 7th birthday. What? Wow. 7th.

Cole, when I held your tiny little body in my arms 7 years ago today, I had no idea how much joy you would bring this family. I couldn't have dreamed you up if I'd tried.

Here are 7 things I love about you.

1. You get so excited about simple things.

2. You wake up happy and smiling before you even open your eyes.

3. You never let me leave without a hug, kiss, and hug, and you run frantically for me like you think I'm going to disappear into thin air before I leave.

4. You are always thinking of ways to help others. Whether it's a radio station pledge drive or someone who just looks like they've had it rough, you instantly want to help.

5. You love your family. You think your brothers are the most amazing guys on the earth, and your sister is totally your BFF.

6. You love God and your Bible. You easily get emotional over spiritual things.

7. You are just who you are supposed to be. No pretense, no trying to be like someone else, you are your own little guy...And that is exactly how I love you.

Happy birthday Coley!
