I'm a big kid now.

When I first met this boy, he was the cutest thing I had ever seen in glasses (until The Kid).
Now, Three is preparing to start high school in the fall.
You have grown-up this year. You have become a real athlete (scoring touchdowns and shooting threes).
You have grown at least 5 inches and turned all man-ish!
We are proud of you, of who you are becoming, of your maturity, awesome sense of style and speed....I'm talking crazy, faster than your uncle kind of speed. Until that re-match, anyway.
Little bit of advice, to an almost man....sometimes, it is ok to lie to your aunt, to spare her feelings. Often, lying to women, can be to the benefit of everyone involved.
Happy 'Golden' Birthday, Three.
At least, in your crazy mother's head.
Love you.
