Today my oldest son Mitchell turns 20. I was teasing him at 7:40 am that it really isn't his birthday for about 12 more hours since he was born at 7:41pm. I made him some pumpkin cheesecake bars to take to work. Since I was too tired last night I made them this morning before he headed out to work. Pumpkin and chocolate are two of Mitch's faves, they go about as fast with the rest of us too! So I think I'll share a couple of photos of Mitch over the years. I'm sure he'll about kill me when he gets logged into his email and finds my most recent post. Ok so I'll post a layout I did of him I think I did it in 2007 and actually won like 2nd prize for it at a LSS.
Here is another LO of him when we were on vacation in NW Wisconsin. I believe he was about 18 mos old here.
And another of him and Noah fishing at a Family Reunion in NW Wisconsin.
Of course I have to show you one of him onstage in CATS.
Someday I'll do a LO of him as Lumiere in Beauty and the Beast. You gotta see how he had to dance and sing with two large candles on his hands and he did it with such finesse. I mean he had those candles flick on and off at the right moments. Guess you really couldn't see that in photo ROFL!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY MITCHELL! I couldn't have chosen a sweeter, compassionate, more loving son if it were up to me. Love you bunches! Mom

It has taken me forever to be able to leave a comment! Everytime I head over here, I see the pictures...think of how quickly our children grow up...then my eyes swell with tears. Am I a sap or what?!?!
The photos and layouts of Mitch are fabulous!!! You have an amzing son, and it was a joy to see him through the years:o) How quickly our babies become men. I hope he enjoyed his 20th birthday and got his fill of pumpkin cheesecake bars:o)

Hi there

Love from Karina
OH Carmen, how did I miss this ..... how darling he is, then and now! What a handsome man he's grown into and I'm sure it seems like just yesterday he was that lil toddler! Big hugs to the birthday boy! (Today is my oldest dd's birthday - whew, busy busy, lol!)
I hope Mitch had a great birthday. Your post was very sweet. Made me laugh too because my Mom always says the day before my birthday: "I can't talk to you, you aren't born yet!". Oh my gosh does that get old but it is so endearing. Thanks for sharing! Best, Curt
