Happy Birthday, George!

My little nephew George is one today. Look at the joy he brought people. (Except for maybe Blanche.)

George has given our family a gift. We are seeing each other in new lights. My dad is no longer the grumpy man grumbling and cursing at the world. Now, he's a gushing and doting Grampy. My mom, always a good mother, is now an incredible Nanny who sings and plays with George all day. And who teaches him how to quack like a duck. My brother strums the guitar for a fascinated George, and George adores him and Nicole. His life makes Dave, Nicole, Byron and I desire our own little lives to bring in the world.

George gives us all joy watching him grow and learn. And it also brings us glee to see his personality grow into the stubborn minx that his mother was. And, according to tales from Craig's family, George has no choice but to be a stubborn little boy! But a little boy who loves to laugh!

And, apparently, dance. So George, Happy Birthday to you. Cut a birthday rug!

Proudly Yours,
xoxoSallyS
