This Day is Such a Special One, It's Birthday Time for You

Sam's 5th Birthday

Sam's 7th Birthday--w/his buddy Oliver

Sam is a gifted child

This poem was written by the Birthday Boy Himself at the tender age of 10:

My parents are so special to me
because without them, where would I be?
Back up in heaven wondering, Why!
but I'm on earth with my parents and I.
I love my parents so much it's not even funny
and they love me back I'll bet you all of my money.
And that's why I'm here because of Daddy and Mommy.

You have been a teenager for a whole year now and it has been a pleasure parenting such a fine, upstanding young man. Keep up the good work. And you are right, Sam, we love you back. Betcha all of your money.
