The BIG 29!!!


Wow Gentry is ALMOST 30. I started "going out" with him when he was 14 so you could say I've known him as my better half for more than half his life. CRAZY! He is always making me laugh. (Of course I tell him it's not because he's funny, I'm just an easy laugher. Is laugher even a word?) But he always keeps our family in a good mood. The kids would all say he's the "nice" parent, but it's just because I have more responsibilities. (wink wink) Am I making a lot of excuses? Anyway HAPPY BIRTHDAY BABE! I LOVE YOU!

zlidtuc(This is long so have Betsy read it to you:) Happy Birthday My birthday baby! You were my last so you will always be my baby:) You were a delight to raise. (Except for maybe those few years in high school). But all in all I am glad you were born to me. I am so lucky to have had such a wonderful son. I am so glad I was your mom. I am proud of who you have become. Your a great Dad and husband. Betsy and your kids, are lucky to have you. There are so many stories about you that Dad and I think of often and laugh about. But this morning Dad and I were talking about the day you were born. He called into work saying he wasn't going to be there because we were going to have our baby that day. I was hoping for a boy for dad because we already had a girl. If I only would have known then, you would have been my last I would have prayed for triplets.:). When you were born and they told me you were a boy I said does my husband know and they said yes. Remember that was 29 years ago before ultra sounds or before the husband could go in to see a C-Section. You were a good baby. Very smiley and happy. I remember feeling so lucky to have a boy and girl. And I am happy today too. Thanks for being such a great son and for all the many things you do for dad and I. I hope your birthday is lots of fun. Thanks for giving us 3 cute grandkids we love so much. I see you in them. Luckily because that is all I'm going to get.:) Have a Happy Birthday my birthday baby!!! We love you so much!!! Love mom and dad

Cindy, you told me Gentry was adopted? Oh well. He's still a good kid.

(Now that I think of it, I think you guys told me years ago not to tell him about the whole adoption thing.)
