Celebrating Collin!



It's hard to believe that another school year is starting for the boys today. Time certainly does seem to fly by the older they get. We have a senior, freshman and 7th grader so we're busy with Jonathon looking at colleges and starting the application process. I have no doubt I'm going to blink and we'll be doing the same with Collin.  It is amazing to watch them grow and soar. 

On Thursday, Collin will be 15. We're so proud of what a hard working and kind young man he is. He developed the best habits for school during his 8th grade year and is going into high school with a quiet, positive confidence. He's following in Ryan's foot steps and will be in high school show choir and also wants to join the bowling team.  Can't wait to watch my beautiful boy soar! 

So...here's his card following this week's CAS(e) this Sketch.
