Dear DJ,
It's so hard to believe that you turn 10 today! It seems like yesterday that I was watching you graduate Laura's Preschool and you were walking around with your miniature Tevas, just like your daddy. You've always wanted to be just like daddy! And you tell you the truth, you guys are starting to look a lot a like.
You have always been the tallest kid in your class. But you never brag about it, it's just something you are use to. You make friends easily and you always make me laugh. Like the time you came home and told me the "garden duty" was given out citations. I had to break the news to you that she is called a "yard duty."
From the moment your sister was born, you guys have been attached at the hip (same with our new addition Avery). I didn't know how well you would get a long with such a wide age gap but that has never bothered you. You are always so good with her; letting her play in your room, making forts for her and teaching her everything you know.
Even though I didn't give birth to you, I consider you my real son. You will always be the little boy who couldn't say his R's, wore Mickey Mouse pull-ups and loved to watch Spy Kids with me.
You were Rileys age when your Daddy and I started dating and I can't believe 7 1/2 years have passed. I can't wait for many more memories with you! Happy Birthday to my little big guy!
