Happy 12th Birthday, Zach!

Wow, 12 years ago we prayed, paced, worried, prayed lots more for this tiny scrap of life that arrived 5 weeks early. At birth you weighed 5lbs9oz, but within days you quickly dropped down to 4lbs5oz. So tiny, and spent a week in a special neonatal intensive care unit. Dad, Mom and big(little only 21 mos old) sister spent the week at Ronald McDonald house, and then onto a motel, spending every minute we could with you. Thankfully, only 1 week and you were strong enough to go home, at 4lbs8oz. We're so thankful your life was spared, and ours have been so blessed to have you, our oldest son. Its amazing how quickly you are growing into a wonderful young man, so thankful to see your walk with God too. Glad you're so strong, I'm sure going to depend on your help in the coming months in the parlor! For his birthday, Zach chose to have money put into his bank account to save for a four wheeler. Happy happy birthday Zach! We love you SO much!
