Matthew's a sweet 16!!

September is a big month for birthdays in our house.

All three of our boys have birthdays.

This week, it's my "Sweetie Petey's" turn.

I don't know why Petey other than it rhymed with sweetie.

Sweetie was the real nick name because he was such a sweet baby.

But now he's "SWEET 16" today!!! 

He tries to hide his sweetness with his coolness, but he's not fooling me.

Matthew has a heart of gold.  Growing up, he was one of my most generous children, always thinking of others.  Although it's tough to be a sweet teenage boy, Matthew does 

nice things for others without trying to be caught or will make a joke about it.

 

I just want you to know Matthew that I still see my sweet boy.

I'm so grateful that you were sent to our family!

I hope you enjoy being 16 and everything that comes with it!!

Happy Birthday!!

I love you!!
