Yep, the baby in our house is turning 24 tomorrow. He generally celebrates his birthday at the beach! In years past... its been with the 'frat boys', this year he is in Hawaii on the beach!

Anyway, where has the time gone, It seems like yesterday I was calling the Dr telling him I was have contractions, giving birth, coming home and having Lance attached to me for the next 6 years. I would walk away from his line of sight and he would scream! He wanted to be held and cuddled all the time. Ryan would always say" momma, put baby down and hold me a minute", I would and Lance would scream!

Then was T-ball, basketball and swim lessons. The first time he spent the night away and the trips to Grandma's house in OKC. He was the cutest little ornery boy! Well, he still is! What a delight he has always been to this family. He keep us laughing and always want to please everyone and make us all happy! We are so proud of him and his achievements. He is a recent graduate of The University of Tulsa.

So HAPPY BIRTHDAY Little Boy named Lance, (I used to lay in bed with the boys everynight and recap their day with a story about Little boy named Lance and Little boy named Ryan, I would start at breakfast and sometimes make up stuff we didnt do, they would just giggle. Oh, the little things we do as moms.) we love ya bunches!
