Victor is 14!











Today is my oldest son Victor's Birthday. Victor was 3yrs old when I met him. He was always smiling and his Dad's best bud. When he was born he weighed 8lbs.9 oz and was 20 inches long.He spent a couple weeks in the hospital due to an infection and the nurses there fell in love with him. His Dad says's they even bought him clothes.I can't imagine why? He was only the cutest baby ever.

Often times I wish I was his birth Mom. What I would have given to play with his thick black hair and cuddled with him. Knowing me I probably would have put ponytails in it even though he was a boy.

Victor has a very sensitive heart. He always has. Even though he is a teenager I am still amazed at how he is always opening doors for others, offering to help around the house and helping without being asked. He will even go running with me when no one else wants to.He is now in High School and growing up so fast. We are already talking driving, girls and going on a mission.It is fun to see how much he is maturing.
I love him very much and am grateful he is my son!

What a cute boy! His hair was amazing. Kari, I think you are an AMAZING mother. A lot of people wouldn't be able to walk into the situation you did and be the kind of mom you are. You are an inspiration to me. Thank you for the comment you left on my blog about my dad. Knowing that others loved him helps when I miss him.

Zach LOVES having him in class. He says he's a great kid. And he also says he's totally swiping this picture of Victor as a baby to use in a lesson somewhere, somehow. ;)
