14

John Paul turned 14 today. He had 3 of his friends ( plus a mess of brothers) over for a pool party. They all seemed to have a lot of fun. I don't think I have seen such a perfect day as this in a long time! The temperature was perfect, the air, the sunshine, the sky. After his friends left he headed out to meet a bunch of other kids for a game of football at the park. Tonight we opened presents and had cake one more time. It was a long, full day.

Happy Happy Birthday John-Paul!
