Hey Luke...

It's your birthday, and lots of people were around to say - Have a great day!

Those are the lyrics to a birthday song that is kind of a tradition in my family so I sang it to Luke when I went in to get him this morning.

He had a great day. I am only posting two pics but there will be more. Several friends called or texted happy birthday wishes, the weather was absolutely wonderful and his peach tree is blooming!

He got lots of love from grandparents, Miss Meg and Mr. Bob, Uncle Greg and Aunt Rebekah and even a call from Aunt Shannon in Italy! Lucky Luke!

A year ago he was on a feeding tube trying to get the eating thing down, and we were very anxious to bring him HOME. How thankful are Steve and I for the little guy sleeping with his buddy George and his new buddy Tatty Teddy (from Aunt Shannon) right now in his room. Luke has made life better, and we are just lucky to know and love him.


He was very meticulous about how he ate his cake. No big bites, he had to figure out what that red and yellow stuff was first and then he was really pretty neat about it :)

Peach blossoms. This tree was a gift from a teacher and friend at the high school last year when Luke was born. I think it was one of the most thoughtful gifts you could give new parents, and it was really wonderful to see those blossoms this weekend. New life, new year...
