Happy Birthday Ben!


I'll keep this post briefer than usual this year as we celebrate Ben's 15th (!) birthday.  It's brief since we've barely stopped moving since the high school spring sports season began, and given Ben has earned himself a spot on the varsity (!) tennis team.  Having not played sports in high school, I had no idea the time commitment involved on a daily basis, and with two kids with relentless schedules, the past month has been a blur.

He continues to get great grades, play beautiful piano and find creative outlets for his wild imagination.  We're so proud of this kid and can't wait to see what he does next!
