15 years ago, we became parents. Shocking, isn't it? I woke up to get ready for class (they still had class the day before Thanksgiving way back when) and my water broke. Michael was READY to get here, even a month early. He was a tiny little guy, only 5 lbs 7 oz, but he's grown... just last month he passed me up in height.
We are very proud of him. He's growing more than just in height, but mentally and spiritually too. He is developing his talents. He is working on leadership skills. He is learning new things in homeschooling and Boy Scouts. He works hard. He has fun. He is exploring new interests and making friends. He attends Seminary and is working on his 2nd year of perfect attendance.
He has a great sense of humor and loves to share it. He is patient with younger brothers and sisters (most of the time!) He is learning to play the piano and does practice, once in a while. He enjoys drawing and writing. He's taken part in NaNoWrimo the last two years, and Scout camp for the last 3 years. (at 3 different Scout camps across the country, no less.) He even changes diapers.... but not often.
He likes They Might Be Giants and the Beatles, as well as other music groups he is discovering all the time. He likes to read and especially likes fantasy books like the Inheritance Cycle by Christopher Paolini, though he has many other favorites.
Michael is a great person to know. I am proud to be his Mom and I love learning who he is becoming.
Now for his driver's training... eek!

7 pizzas for a hungry group! Michael loves pizza and enjoyed picking a lot of different kinds for both homemade and a few take and bake... (Papa Murphy's actually freezes well...)
Flaming death...
The smoke attacked the missionaries...
He's a big boy now!
Apparently he gets presents. Dunno, birthday or something.
This is the "Blue Canary" of They Might Be Giants fame...
