Will at Seventeen

I realize there is probably an "aging out" on birthday posts.  But since I did not have Will when he was little, seventeen shall not be that age.

The birthday season ended a couple weeks ago with Will's seventeenth birthday.  All four kids have birthdays between September and February.  Smash Christmas and a bunch of other family birthdays in the mix, and I greet March with a sigh of relief.













Will's interests at this ripe old age are his girlfriend, basketball, baseball, social media, his girlfriend, movies, fiddling on guitar and piano, oh, and his girlfriend.

When he is home, you can still find Will playing video games or
wrestling brothers and sister who think he is the best.  His patience with little people is often inspiring to me.

 It's hard to remember life without this smooth-talking, candy loving, guy.  Will won't graduate from high school until age nineteen.  This is just fine with me.  I'll take every day I can get.

Happy birthday, Homie.
