Wow bubba you turned 6 last month and started Kindergarten this year-it's amazing how fast you are growing up right before our eyes!! You are in the middle of a growth spurt but at last check-up you weighed 40 pounds and were 44 inches tall. Pretty soon you are gonna catch Kellsye and that will really make her mad!! You have a huge temper when things don't go your way and you tend to stay mad instead of just getting over things. You have a huge love of being outdoors, your mamaw, swimming and your ds and psp. You refuse to sleep in your bed and you love snuggling next to mommy all night long. Last night you told me "i love you" and it melted my heart!!! Your jokes and sayings that you come up with everyday continually make us laugh and make us realize how lucky we are to be your parents. We love you!!!

Kellsye-You just turned 10 last week and I can't believe it. When I first found out I was pregnant at 18 I was scared to death and couldn't imagine having a kid that young!! Looking back you were the greatest thing that I could have ever wished for. You are a 5th grader this year and are making straight A's and loving school and your teacher. You started back to competing in gymnastics this year and are a Level 5-both meets so far have resulted in multiple medals and your scores just keep getting better. This year we have also learned alot in regards to your health and are still learning!! We have seen almost every specialist at Riley this year and still see most of them on a regular basis. They have told us that you have Lupus, Ehler-Danlos Type 3, asthma, sleep apnea, chronic UTIs and a bleeding disorder. You currently take about 12 different medicines to help with these problems and it seems to finally be helping you feel a little bit better. You currently weigh 55 pounds and are 52 inches tall. You are a horrible eater and nothing seems to make that better right now and it's starting to be concerning to us. You are not a very friendly person sometimes but you got a lot going on and we have learned to deal with that. You are everything to us and we couldn't imagine our lifes without you.
