Eleven...

Today our sweet Luke turns 11...

His name means "Bringer of Light" and that he does. He is almost always happy- no matter how much sleep he gets! He can be the last one to bed and the first one up and still greet me with "How did you sleep mom?" His tender heart is evident to everyone who meets him.

As soon as we found out we were pregnant with Luke, we chose a special Psalm and have used it as a guide to pray for him. Daily we pray for God's angels to protect and guide Luke in all of his ways...

He loves his family, friends, school and snow boarding and can almost eat as many spare ribs as Brad. Certainly he is more computer savvy than me already, and loves to make cards and write reports about things that interest him. Every night he listens to an " Adventures in Odyssey" CD, and definitely has a sweet tooth. His feet are now bigger than mine and it won't be long before he surpasses me in height too.

It seems like just yesterday that we were giving him his first hair cut... and now we have a hard time getting him to cut his hair at all... :)

Luke brings us so much joy and we are very proud to be his parents!

Happy Birthday Luke!
