Happy Birthday Joshie ~ Now you are 12!

Happy Birthday to you ~
Happy Birthday to you ~
Happy Birthday, dear Joshie!
Happy Birthday to YOU!


Twelve years old!  I remember the day you arrived on the scene like it was yesterday. The whole labor was text book.  Daddy and Dr. Batey were talking football and sons while I laid in bed listening to them.  They chatted about whether you'd have huge hands like your brother or long arms.  Would you be able to run fast or would you be solid as a rock.  It was the most peaceful delivery ever. 

You still are fascinated with how things work.  Whenever you have an opportunity, you are taking something apart or researching how something works.  You are growing into a thoughtful young man; you constantly try and help your younger brothers even when they don't really think they need any help!  You would prefer to build something rather than finish your English most days, but you still persevere.  

I love you, Joshie!
Love,
Mom

You love to swim and would snorkel all day given the opportunity.  



Happy Birthday ~~ Now you are 12!
