Happy 20th Birthday Sam

Sam enjoys the indoor pool recently at the Chattanooga Choo Choo.

Twenty years ago today, I gave birth to a 9 pound, 3 ounce baby boy who we named Samuel Preston.  I vividly remember driving home with him strapped securely in his car seat, and thinking, "Oh my, what do I do with this baby now?" Much time has passed and many struggles have ensued, but we made it through the storms my baby boy and me.  He's growing to be such a sweet, endearing young man, and all who get the opportunity to know him, love him dearly.  I am an infinitely better person for having him in my life, and I feel so blessed to be his mom.  Happy birthday buddy.  I could not be prouder of you my son and I love you with all the depths of my soul.

Tell Sam all his mom's friends out in Blog land are singing "HAPPY BIRTHDAY, dear Sam."

(I note Lisa said--Sam is entering his 20th decade. Hmmm--I think he'd be the top of the nightly news if that were. His second decade more like...)
