Happy Birthday, Aaron!

Here's the birthday boy (in the middle) with his cousin, Glen Sanders, and the love of his life, Cyndie. Today Aaron is 30 years old. The big 3-0. Wow. I love that Aaron loves his family so much and likes to be around us all. He's lots of fun to be around too. He has amazed me with his willpower to overcome some addictions and to be more in control. He would do anything for anyone and he has a kind heart. He knows how to love the unlovable and that's a real talent and gift. He's a good husband and father and a good provider for his family. He has always had a mind of his own, though, and I remember when he got mad at his teacher in 3rd grade because she put his name on the board for talking and he wasn't talking. It seemed so unfair to him, he decided he wasn't sticking around for anymore injustice and he walked home. All the way to Franklin from Preston. Not only that, but he walked on the back roads and that was even longer. He even stopped along the way and sat in the gutter and ate his lunch. During all that time he was walking, everyone at the school and me and his dad were frantically looking for him. We decided that it was time to get the police looking too, so I came home to Franklin to bring the other kids home, and there he was- sitting on the floor in front of the t.v. watching cartoons. He was oblivious to all the commotion he had caused, not to mention scaring us to death. I didn't know whether to spank him or kiss him, so I just stood there and bawled. Hans was a little more loving than I was about the whole thing. Aaron used to love to go on the "egg route" with his dad up through Soda Springs and Lava because he loved taking a lunch somewhere. But sometimes he would have his lunch eaten by the time they left Franklin. Aaron I love you. Thank you for all the love you give me. Happy Birthday.
