Happy 18th Birthday, Matt!!

I can't believe I'm even typing this...Matthew is turning 18 today!

How does that happen...kids growing up so fast, I mean? It seems like last month he was Miyah and Mei Lin's age.

We're so proud of the young man he's become and are eagerly watching to see him continue to grow and mature into the man God has begun making him these past 18 years.

I wish we were home to celebrate with him, but his sisters and I are far away at my sister's where we're watching my niece while the family is in China adopting the newest "B" (more on thast later). We did, however, have a mini-celebration on Sunday before we left home. Please send him your birthday wishes as he's home nursing his knee after surgery a week and a half ago. I hate that he's home layed up on his birthday...oh, who am I kidding, I'm sure he's having a great day without us!

Happy Birthday, Matt!! I love you and miss you!! Love, Mom
