Have no anxiety at all, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, make your requests known to God. Then the peace of God that surpasses all understanding will guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.
Phil 4:6-7

Happy 16th Birthday, Bear!

My favorite picture -- just minutes after being born.


You were the sweetest, happiest, snuggliest baby I've ever known.
Your nickname "bear" still fits you.
Even though you're 16 years old, you're still the sweetest.
We love you.

    Thanks, Kimberly. I do have very fond memories of his sweet youth!

    Margaret -- this boy wants Sweet Potato Pie!

    Matilda -- mostly a teddy, but he has his grizzly moments!

    I have heard that most teenagers have grizzly moments. I think the Professor is warming up!
