Happy Birthday #3
Tue Nov 16 2010

It's hard for me to believe this, but #3 turns 17 today. Where do the years go? My baby started out with mahagony hair and blue eyes, and has transformed through every hair color from white blonde to mahogany through the last 17 years. It seems like only yesterday he was my little golden toddler. As a toddler #3 had light golden blonde hair, golden skin in the summer, and the most startling ice-blue eyes framed by thick black lashes.

His hair has darkened to a dark blonde/light brown, his skin is golden only if I can pry him away from his video games during the summer, and his eyes changed to a golden-green.

He's still my baby though. And I can't believe he's already 17.

    Wow- I remember him in diapers... Time goes too quickly, so sweet/sad- but you've both done a good job this past 17 years!
