Happy Birthday, Bill

Chris and Bill, 1983

My second born. You have always been smart, witty, and VERY a little bit accident prone. I can hardly believe you are 27 years old.

You were born on your Great Grandfather's birthday. He decided that you would be born that day, and told everyone so months beforehand. I wish he had been with us longer, to see you grown up.

You have a way with little kids.

You know more movie trivium than anyone I have ever met. Not only do you remember movies, but pretty much anything you see goes directly into your brain, to be engraved forever.

I don't think you ever turn down a dare.

You have always been a person who lends a helping hand.

I wish that I had been able to give you a better childhood.

May you have a blessed day today, and all the rest of your life.

Happy Birthday.
