Where did the 18 years go? Happy Birthday, TJ!


Me.....28. Him.....two hours old!

Me....46. Him....18.

Tom and TJ....then!

Tom and TJ today!

The family out for dinner for TJ's birthday. I know...hate the picture of me!

Tune in tomorrow with some of my thoughts on having my first child turn 18. It's a time of celebration...a time of some anxiety...and a time of some fears.

NOTE: THIS WAS MEANT TO BE FUNNY.....PLAIN AND SIMPLE.

Tell TJ his sense of humor is off the charts.

Happy Birthday TJ! He is such a handsome kid, I wish him all the best. Having the whole world ahead of you is an awesome thing.

TJ is such a good sport! My son would never have posed for anything like this! He's going to be 21 this year and he moved out when he was 18 so I know the angst you feel about having your baby bird leave the nest.

It sounds like you have done quite a fine job in raising him. Be confident that he will follow in God's plan for him. Continue praying, you can never do that enough! I wish you all the best! TJ, Happy Birthday. Kathy & Tom, Keep hangin' in there. Dane, Tyler, Sarah & Lily, how does it feel to have an 18-year-old brother? Look up to him, learn from his mistakes, trust God to guide you. Take care. ~Anonymous
