Sixteen years ago, our second child, our first son was born on 9/11/92 at 9:11 p.m. and he weighed 8lb 11oz. His name, Isaac, means "laughter," and he was such a happy, laid-back little guy. Isaac, you have brought so much joy to our lives, we are richer for having the privilege of parenting you.
As you turn 16, we now have the privilege of watching you transition to manhood. We can see the promise of the man you will become, and it is exciting. Your sensitive heart and your strong faith in God will serve you well, young man; as will your innate sense of right and wrong.
You are a fine young man and a wonderful son. We are so proud to be your parents and blessed to have you in our family. We love you very much. Happy birthday, Isaac.
