Happy Birthday to my wonderful boy! Jacob is such a tremendous blessing to me - and to our family - he makes us all laugh every day, and his sweet spirit and kind ways are so endearing. He is always eager to serve too. Here is an example - when we go in the basement to watch family movies, it is ALWAYS Jacob who runs up and down all night to get everyone what we forgot upstairs! Snacks, blankets, drinks, whatever...
He is a "dream" brother to Hannah and Ryan - he loves them, plays with them, encourages them, includes them, and is truly their hero and best friend - no exaggeration. I look at him and I am so very very proud of who he is and grateful for the young man that God is leading him to be.
Danny and I fight over who gets to have special "dates" with Jacob when a favorite movie comes out - he is just such a delight to be with... Danny has been winning a lot lately and I better stake my claim! I NEVER feel like I get enough time with Jacob - or any of my kids for that matter!
Even as I am typing this, Hannah came upstairs saying "Mom, Jacob is so sweet - he keeps giving us turns on his new game!" (which he just received in the last hour). Not surprised. This is just typical of Jacob.
Here is Jacob today at fourteen!!! Hannah and I made him a special cake!! We love you so much Jacob! We hope you know we love you by how much we all FIGHT over you!! haha
