Brandon has turned 16! I can't believe that, let alone believe that I am old enough to have a 16 year old. Where did the time go? It was just yesterday when I was sitting on the floor building towers out of blocks so Brandon could Godzilla them to the floor. It was just yesterday when we would line up his cars on the floor in a straight line so he could count them all and decide who would race. We would sit on the couch for hours reading picture books and watching toy story over and over and over. I would also spend many hours teaching him the alphabet on the chalk board and eventually how to read, before he went to kindergarden. Time flies way too fast.
He is such a bright man. He is on his way to receiving the highest diploma his school gives out. He is very excited about that. Next week he has some midterms then on Friday, then I am gonna take him to get his permit. I am so nervous about him learning to drive. Not because I think he will be a bad driver, but because of the horrible drivers out there. Some people should not be allowed to drive.
His dreams are to go to college, then become a marine. And in that order, so that he can go in being an officer. And he has wanted to be a writer since he was young. So those experiences will give him lots to write about.
Brandon is so amazing. Not only does he have the biggest heart ever; but he is so smart and a very special young man. We are so proud to be his parents.
We love you very much Bran.
