Happy Birthday to Devin! He turned 18 on the 23rd and I'm having a hard time believing he's that old. Sure he's helpful, responsible and mature, but an adult? Wow! It just hit me that we only have 1 year left before he leaves on his mission. That's so exciting but so soon!We celebrated on Wednesday with his favorite Mushroom Bisque. That is what he requests every year for his birthday, mostly because he loves it but partly because his little sisters cry when he picks it! Brothers love that!
Tonight he's going out with some friends to see a movie, go to Farr's ice cream, and then come back to our house for games and an assortment of pie. It sounds fun!
We're so proud of Devin and the terrific man he's becoming! It's really been fun and rewarding watching him grow up. Especially considering the little stinker he used to be:)! When I think of all of the horrendous messes and "science experiments" I cleaned up over the years, it makes me cringe! It's a good thing he was so cute and smiley or I might have gotten rid of him years ago! Imagine looking into this adorable face surrounded by mounds of potato flakes (a ski slope), Tide (more snow), ketchup footprints on my carpet (he was being a detective and looking for clues) and on and on and on.........................................................................big messes then, but just good memories, now. Sigh.
