Yes, he was the most beautiful baby I had ever seen.
He really didn't remain a baby for very long. By the time he was 9 months old, he was not only walking, but the kid was feeding himself whatever he could stab with a fork.
This next photo collage is titled Dude REALLY likes to wear hats.
We started training him at a very early age for his future career, working for a landscape company. Take notice of the lamp post in the background. Kid gets driver's license. Kid backs out of driveway. Kid takes out lamp post.
He was never really thrilled with the idea of team sports. KungFu was the perfect fit.
When he started training with weapons, we made him take those big sticks and sharp swords and go practice outside.
He's working on his second Black Sash. This year he started teaching a class at a living community for developmentally disabled adults.
This is pretty much the fashion look that the kid rocked through his teens and into his 20's. (See the big snowbank next to my 6'3" kid? That's why they call me Little Miss Sunshine State)
Now when he comes to visit us in The Sunshine State, we make him play nicely with the gators.

He's a gentleman. He's cool. He's Cape Cod Kid. (When he turns 25, I'll start calling him Cape Cod Man)
HAPPY BIRTHDAY (plus 3 days....Mom's been working a lot and needed Dad to crop the pictures)
LOVE YOU,
Mom and Dad
