Happy Birthday, Blake!

I don't know how we totally scored when it comes to son-in-laws. We have three of the best available. Well, I guess they aren't available anymore. Blake is an amazing guy and perfect match for Shonna. His grand entrance into fatherhood was anything but easy, but he never blinked an eye and jumped in with both feet. Before baby Caleb came home from the hospital, he did all the cooking, cleaning, caring for Shonna (including all the running up and down the stairs- even packing her a lunch in a cooler in the morning before he left so she wouldn't have to climb down the stairs to eat.) He got very little sleep. Then when Caleb got home, he still did a lot of the cleaning, cooking, changing, feedings (including night) and got very little sleep. Things are much better now, but he still does so much and gets very little sleep. His grandma told me a story about Blake when he was a little boy(you know how Grandmas do!) She said they were in the car together once and he told her, "I can't wait til I am married and have kids." He kept his eye on that goal, and is now a great husband and father. We're so glad you chose our family, Blake! Happy Birthday!
