Cloud turns 21...

My "most favorite younger son"

- he used to call me

"the best mom I ever had"

so now we are even -

turns 21 today.

He loves clouds and was even called 'Cloud'

when he worked at camp last summer.

He also joined the "Cloud Appreciation Society"

and has a certificate to prove it.

And finally, one of his favorite bands is "Cloud Cult"....

So happy birthday Nicholas!

We love you lots!!!!!

Here are some photos that take you from a wee tot

to the fine young man you are today.

Let us begin.

posing with Creampuff...

selling sea shells by the sea shore...

made quite a killing too with his bear

holding his homemade sign.

Harry fever...

no fear of birds...

many hair styles and colors...

and friends at sleepovers...

and growing into a man...

We love you Mr. Nick!
