This "little guy" turned 17 yesterday! He is my cousin, Thomas. When I think of Thomas and the young man he has become, my heart literally swells with pride.Thomas has a keen sense of humor and his mind is quip as a whip...almost like his father! This 17 year old can have me doubled over in laughter, my stomach cramping from laughing so hard...and he's only 17!
My nickname for him is, "Mouth," because he has an answer for everything, which he will explain to you in great detail (even if it's wrong...but don't tell him that!). Sometimes I swear he makes stuff up! (Thomas, if you're reading this, don't end sentences in prepositions like I just did!)
Thomas brings a lot of joy, laughter, love and compassion to our family. He is a bright, talented, sharp, loyal and multi-faceted "kid" and I can't wait to see where life takes him. I am very proud of you, Thomas.
Happy Birthday (belated), Thomas! I love ya!
Missy, you wish your 'little' cousin the most happies belated birthday from me! I can still remember meeting Thomas at your Uncle's house when he was teeny-tiny! Wow, time flys! Anyways, again Happy Birthday Thomas!

I agree with everything you wrote about Thomas. He always makes our family get togethers more fun! A senior this year with a driver's license--amazing!
ReplyDeleteAnd about the prepositions at the end of sentences. Who made up that stupid rule and why do we have to follow it anyway?
Happy Birthday Thomas! I am in shock at how fast time flies, he is not that little guy that hated it when Missy brought her friends around anymore. He is a wonderful young man. I really miss being with your family and Thomas is always good for a smile.
