Nine.

Dear Spence,

To the boy whose joy knows no bounds, as always, I am honored to be your Mom and I thank you for the last nine years. Your life has made my life and I am forever grateful for the lessons you continue to teach me. My birthday wish for you this day is that you never lose sight of the magic you see in life and that the happiness you feel accompanies you throughout the years ahead.



(Spence, preparing for his future as the Naked Chef, April 2009)


Love,
Mama

Seriously, I can count his ribs in the picture! You need to put some meat on that boy. I love him dearly. He is the quintessential first born; perfect in every way.

What a cutie. I can't believe Spence is 9. Holy smokes. Oh, and about your post yesterday- I would be willing to bet a lot of money that all those kids were thinking, "Daaannngggg. . . Johnson has a smokin hot wife to go home to every night!" You're the best, Karen. Thanks for making me smile everyday.
