July 20th......

Nick is 15 today. It seems like just yesterday that I was scared that I had no clue what I was doing being a dad. Oh wait that was yesterday! 15 years old on the cusp of being able to drive and take the first big steps towards independence. I remember being 15 and how much I did not like it.... My friends could drive but me noooooooo my friends got to do all the cool things but me... I am pretty sure that my teenage years were just like the vast majority of teenage years during the 1970's...... Nick's seem to be so much different from mine. He has his own computer, MP3 player etc and is so self contained. Teenagers get to do so much more than I did as a teen. It is good to look back and remember the past and look forward to the potential.

Happy Birthday Nick! I hope that all of your hopes and dreams come true!
