Happy Birthday Drew



I know I'm repeating the title here, but again, Happy Birthday Drew. I was torn between putting a baby picture here and one of my favorites from around age 10 but I opted to show everyone a recent picture. Fifteen years ago my nephew was born and what a day it was. When his older brother was born I had been living with my sister and brother in law as I was trying to save money to buy my first place. And even though I lived with them and drove them to the hospital, I was not able to participate much in the big day. Well, for Drew it was the opposite. My sister and Roger had arranged for me to be allowed in the delivery room which was just the greatest experience. Now, my sister was a little annoyed with us because she was not allowed to eat anything and this hospital had the greatest little coffee shop and both Roger and I were having these fabulous milkshakes. I know it was probably kind of cruel but, hey, we were hungry! With Quinn it was quite a long delivery as he was early. With Drew he was on-time and was a fairly simple and quick birth. He was one long baby which is still true today as he is pretty much going to be the tallest in the family (maybe my cousin's kid Jason is the tallest) but we'll see.

Drew, you are funny, sweet, charming, kind, and you always look out for the under-dog and I love you for it! Happy Birthday Dude!
