The Big 2-1...

21 years ago today William joined our family. Although he came into the world with a few complications, he has been nothing but a pleasure. We are hoping that someone in Colombia is making the day a little bit special for him...not that he is focusing on himself today, but a "happy birthday" is always nice to hear. I deposited some $ into his account and told him to buy something he's been wanting...he thought he might buy a hammock or a Colombian sombrero! No big surprise...I did tell him to think about it first...really, how in the world is he going to transport a sombrero? I can just see him now getting off the plane wearing a huge sombrero...ugh...some things never change :) And about the hammock...we don't have a couple of big trees to tie the thing to...maybe re-think that too and just take your companion to lunch! I did "cave" and send him a box with a few things...you know, it cost $56 to send $20 worth of crap...actually I did find a pair of shoes on sale, so the value was a little more, but you get the idea...I tucked some little bottles of Dr Pepper in the shoes...hopefully the DP didn't explode...he will be most excited about his beloved Dr Pepper :) Happy Birthday Elder Casper...see you in 3 1/2 months!
