Look who's 4!!

Four years ago was a pretty life altering time for our family. Brian had just had his first malignant tumor removed, along with several other surgeries for just about every complication he could invent. Lucas delayed coming for nearly a week (actually if it wasn't for pitocin it would have been much longer), so his dad could be there to see his birth. Our spirits were quite low and emotions were very close to the surface. After a dramatic day of labor (nothing seemed to come easy at this point), Lucas finally decided it was time to take his first real breath. The first thing he did was grab onto Brian's little finger. He lifted our spirits in a way that we never knew was possible and while we still have our ups and downs, he always keeps us laughing. It's a little late, but HAPPY BIRTHDAY BUDDY! We love you more than you could ever know.
