Lawson is our spunky, funny, creative and kind second son who turns double digits today! How can it be that we have had ten quick years with this sweet one?! He brings fun to our family with his desire to have frequent dance parties and to keep us laughing with his jokes. He feels deeply and gives the best hugs for sure. He makes friends easily and is a go with the flow (fly by the seat of his pants) kind of kid. He's always up for an adventure or doing something creative whether that's building a fort in the woods, building Mine Craft worlds or of late, making family videos on the iPad. He tells us he'd like to either be an inventor or an architect...I do believe he could do either of those jobs very well!
Lawson James, ten years ago when I first laid eyes on you, my initial comment to your daddy was, "he has such skinny legs, just like G-Dad's!" I can't believe today, how big you are and how strong you have become. You are still quite skinny but you are scrappy. You enjoy playing flag football, basketball and soccer with friends and have a good time doing it. Your family enjoys cheering you on and watching whatever sport you play.
This boy brings a smile to my face with his insights and comments about spiritual things. He is learning how to apply the word of God to his every day life and the situations that the Lord presents him with. Things don't always come easy for Lawson but he pushes through the struggles and we are so very proud of the young man he is becoming. Perseverance and self control are areas we see him growing in. Lawson we couldn't love you more. You are a precious young man and we are so grateful to be your parents!
This picture is a fairly good representation of Lawson's lease on life....to have fun, no matter what! Whether we're at the lake, at home, on the ski lopes, with friends or family, you always have a good time, making memories and having fun! We are thankful for you today, Happy Birthday Bud!!
