Happy Birthday Adam

I am taking a short break from the previous posts, to tell my oldest Happy Birthday!

Adam turned 14 on the 27th!

I am blessed and shocked by this!
You never believe or even understand how fast time will go when they are first born and everyone tells you "the time will fly"!
The time has flown.
I have told you all about our crazy year with Adam and I have asked you to pray and God answered our prayers......
Adam is an 8th grader!
I am so thankful. Now, let me tell you about some of the great things God has placed in Adam!

Adam is an amazing young man, with a heart of gold and passion for people! He honestly wants to see people do well and wants to be apart of helping them achieve their goals!
I can remember going out with Adam when he was, I think 9, and he collected food and money from our neighbors to help get our food pantry at our church (at that time) started! He went to every door and explained what he was doing and asked for our neighbors help! I think every person in our neighborhood donated something to the food pantry. We went to church that night and Adam gave his donations and expected nothing in return! It was a beautiful and proud moment in my life as his mom! Adam has given me so many more of those moments, as I sit here and think on them, I am truly blessed!
Some of these moments, are as simple as holding the door for other people, he never misses the chance!
At Adam's young age, he understands that people need people! He gets it and he promotes it.
Adam loves to work with his hands and does at every chance he can, it is so neat to watch him work with his dad, my dad or my FIL and chatting with them the entire time. He speaks of promises, truth and love to them, simply beautiful!
Adam is an honest blessing and continues to offer hope and love to others. I am so thankful to be apart of his life and his love! I am truly blessed by him every day and I thank God for bringing him into my life, I couldn't have planned it better. God really knows what He is doing!
Happy Birthday Adam, I love you!!!
