Happy 27th Birthday Hunter Man...................A counselor once told me when she gets to heaven, she wants to ask the Lord, " Lord, why do you let your children have children?" I get that!
Twenty-seven years ago, I was 24 and dad was 27 years old. Oh son, did you ever clearly understand how screwed up your parents were when we had you? UNBELIEVABLE! It's by the Grace of God that you are not still drooling all of yourself and others.
If you've ever wondered about God's workmanship, just look over your shoulder at your parents. We are thankful that God could see down the corridors of time and saved us from ourselves and gave us you. Why am I thinking of that movie, "Dumb and Dumber". LOL....
No seriously, I think every mother wants to have a son. I most definitely didn't deserve you, that's for sure. You had such innocence, surely I would stain you, and I did! BUT GOD, was in our midst the whole time and filled the pot holes that I created to make a wonderful you. I wouldn't change a thing about you. You are one of the funniest people in the WHOLE WIDE WORLD. You can make me laugh like no other. You're openness and honesty would curl the toes of those reading this, because they don't know you. But, for some reason, I can understand you. LOL. It's a good thing, huh. I better not share any of our conversations, people would swear we didn't have any sense.
You are an amazing husband, from my side of the tracks, anyhow. (Amy has final say) You are closed mouthed and people would be so lucky to share there deep dark secrets with you because of your loyalty.
You still have that stinking look that melts my heart. If I'm upset with you, all you have to do is look at me and I'm butter in your hand. ( I hope your wife isn't ready to throw up) But, it's true. I just can't help it, I'm head over heals in love with you.
Happy 27th birthday Hunter Man. Remember, God is ever present, He is real and he wants all of you!
~ Love, Mom
Kelly, listen.. this was such a good birthday tribute. That Hunter.. I call him Wood Chuck, and I think you're gonna be okay with that. I absolutely think the world of your son, granted I'm just friends with his wife. But you my friend did a fantastic job raising such a man. You totally should have raised another one, for like uhm me.
ReplyDeleteBut enough about him, beginning next week Amy will have something for you, from me, ask her about it multiple time, be really annoying about it. Think Vlog, and think how proud of you I am for the last one you did.

ReplyDeleteShaylynn, you are so funny . Thank you for all the kind words. Another son? I'll just take you! I love to follow your comments on Amy's post. You are a ball of fire,
ReplyDeleteand clearly far more awesome then amy, because she hasn't even commented... right. right.
DeleteWell, let's see. She did mention my blog post on her blog yesterday, so I'l have to forgive her. As for being more awesome than Amy; she better watch out because you have my FULL attention and I'm liking what I see....She came to my shop today and we were talking about my comment to you earlier. She reminded me that I have no more sons, but I have adopted a son ( not really) and he married my daughter. So, I can work on that if you'd like....Just put your order in..
DeleteI guess you can forgive her. But don't do it very often. Grudges are really healthy. Get out there and adopt away, I trust you.
DeleteOh Hunter, he is flipping fantastic. Amy.. well... well... well.. she still hasn't commented.
I love this Kelly.. and I know Hunter would agree you did a great job with him, I think the important stuff took:) I am certainly grateful for everything he brings to Amy's life (and everyone else's lives that also love him including me!) that gives her so much joy.
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean, I wonder if any mother ever feels truly adequate. I am just so glad we have such an awesome God who I believe can help what is good to stick, and even use the screwed up stuff for their good if they have a heart to. That blows me away.
Hey Lynn, I think it will always blow me away when I look back and see the hand of God in someones life. I'll never get use to it, like I do with other things in life. Thanks for the compliments. And I know for sure how much Miss Ames loves her Mom....You are very special to them.....
DeleteBeautiful words. Happiest of days for all his days for Hunter Man.
ReplyDeleteThanks Laurie
