HAPPY BIRTHDAY CHRISTIAN!!!!
September 03, 1993- My older sister Gloria and my brother in law Jim anxiously await the arrival of their first baby boy...
After spending my whole entire summer torturing my sister to play tennis with me (i was only 11) despite her MASSIVE belly (for those of you that don't know her she's about 5'1 weighed about 125 right before she gave birth- she looked like she had swallowed a bowling ball).
I couldn't wait for the arrival of the second baby of our family (Alex being the first), I rubbed her belly every night, and made her drink terrible homemade teas that according to our mom would "induce her labor", I'd talk to him and plea with him to please make sure he'd make his "GRAND APPEARANCE" during the day so that I could be close... But of course even in the womb Christian didn't listen to me (still doesn't)... Sometime in the middle of the night my sisters water broke and from what I heard she was very calm (she even showered, I would have ran out of the house butt naked), I remember waking up to my sister and Jim not being there and my mom telling me she had left sometime around 5 or 6 (i was pretty upset, I wanted to be part of the action).
He's been an amazing nephew, grandson and most importantly an amazing son (my sister & Jim did something right)..He's grown up to be a man of integrity,honor and humility that loves the lord (i almost cry every time I read this)... What more could this family ask for?
Today we celebrate his 17th birthday (can't wait for 18!!!) but also today we Thank god for giving us such a healthy happy loving man...(Yes, you're a man already)
