Happy Tuesday my friends. We're celebrating Collin's 13th birthday and the first day of school. It's hard to believe we have three teenagers in the house. Lucky it was the first day of school or I wouldn't have a recent picture of Collin by himself. He's definitely hit the phase where he doesn't like his picture taken :) I wish I could describe what a sweetheart he is. He loves to cook...seriously love to cook and it a very big nurturer. On the nights when Pat is out and I come in from work, Collin always asks what I would like for dinner and is at the ready to make grilled chicken, a burger on the grill or pasta. He LOVES to cook. He is very tactile...anything with his hands he loves to do too. He also loves fishing and is starting to try his hand at golf. He's a very clever guy! And he never hesitates to give a kiss, hug or a quick I love you. Love him to pieces and hope his 13th year is an awesome one!
Here's a very CAS card for CAS(E) this Sketch. A very little interpretation of the sketch!
And here's the crew on the first day of school...sophomore, 7th and 5th. Time is flying! And don't you love Collin's face?!

Happy birthday to Collin! How neat that he loves to cook. My 7th grader says he wants to be a chef, but he's not at Collin's level yet.
LOve your back to school photos! Wow, are these guys growing! I also think your card is PERFECT! xx

Handsome men you have got there Lynn. Happy Birthday to Collin!
He is a sweetie and how fab to have him make you dinner. Great take on the sketch and perfectly CAS
Happy birthday, Collin! His interests sound so much like my recently turned 13-year-old's. I bet they'd get along really well. He's got your face, mom. So cute! And his card is pure, CAS perfection!

Wonderful take on the sketch, Lynn!

Your take on the CTS is super duper awesome CAS!
Thanks for playing!
Happy birthday to the guy who knows how to make one great cup of coffee! I love the CAS style of this card...the punch of colour and how one's eye flows from the arrows to the sentiment and back. Gorgeous!
This is a perfect take on the sketch Lynn!! The happiest of birthday wishes to Collin the cook!! Your boys are all so cute. Hope they have a wonderful school year!
I couldn't help but smile the whole time I was reading your 'filled with proud mama love' post! I remembered how he came into the kitchen when I was at your house and warmed up a bowl of chili for lunch and seemed so at ease in the kitchen. Happy 13th Birthday Collin!
Congrats!! He looks like a what-we-call-here- "brugpieper"; that stage where they still have so much to see and learn and want to go so quick, but are too young for a lot jet...
Love uour take on the sketch!
