Happy Addison-shine day.

What happened?

 I turned around and suddenly you’re older. 

It’s been 32 years since I held you for the first time and named you Addison-shine. You are every bit of who I had hoped you would be. 

You are kind. 

You are loving.

You are smart. 

You are gentle. 

You can create something amazing out of nothing. So imaginative. So inventive. 

You sing at the top of your lungs even if you don’t know the words.

 You laugh loud and tell a great story. 

You are a caring dad, husband and son. 

You have amazing hair. 

You are magical on stage and off. 

I'm so glad you were born.

 We celebrated Addison's birthday with an early dinner at Chile Amor before Addison and Bre had to go to Hale Center Theatre for a show and rehearsal and we took the kids to our home for baby sitting and a sleep over. 

Like father in a sombrero...Like Son.

Bre spoiled this boy with clothes, voice lessons a fun swim day with Alfie and Poppy at Crystal Hot Springs and then dinner at Chile Amor.  Addison said  he read some where , "You know that you made it when the things you are currently complaining about are the things you were previously dreaming about"....and he totally gets this.    Addison is "complaining" about performing Music Man on his Birthday, having too much art work to get to and so little time and teaching at CPT Academy.  All things which are blessings in his life.
