Happy Birthday to Son Number Two

Happy Birthday Kiddo! You make me laugh and groan with your jokes at time. You have a great sense of humor, and your heart is almost always in the right place. I wish you all the best on this day and all days. You brighten my days, and am glad to have been your dad for the last 14 years.
