An annual update is still better than no update, right? Even with the best of intentions, here we are - not one update in 2016. Well, these pictures are from 2016 so that's just as good, right? This has really been a transitional year for Daniel. He has changed so much - taller, deeper voice - he has gone from little boy to teenager right before our very eyes! I don't know if I like it, but since we can' slow down time - we're just trying to enjoy every day, every moment, before this sweet thing spreads his wings and flys away. 12 years old and in 7th grade now. He hates school, loves soccer, plays sax in the school band, got braces this year and is the only 12 yr old on the planet without a phone. And in the midst of all the changes - he is still that sweet, fun loving boy that brings us joy every day. He has a happy heart, loves to laugh and to make you laugh. Life is good....
