Grant Alexander

Today is our grandson Grant's 20th birthday.  He is our third grandchild and 2nd grandson.

Grant is an important part of this large family.

And an even more important part of this smaller family.

 It doesn't seem possible that it's been twenty years since his birth which I described in more detail in this post but it has; and here is Grant 'through the years'.

 Although he's changed a lot over the years, from an early age it looked like he would be be athletic,

some day have ties to the military,

and be very cool.

And it turns out that he is athletic,

is going to school on an ROTC scholarship,

and is definitely very cool.

He also loves his little sister and has from the moment she was born,

is a good friend and loving brother to Evan,

loves hanging out with his dad and always has,

 and loves and appreciates his adoring mom.

Grant is smart, hard-working, and goal oriented.  He's fun-loving and thoughtful, helpful and kind-hearted,

 and laid back but not too laid back.

We're proud of Grant and the wonderful person that he is and we look forward to watching his life unfold.  AND, we're wishing him the best birthday he's every had but one that's only half as good as the many more to come.  Happy Birthday, Grant!  We love you!
