What a wonderful 7 years it has been. My sweet, new born baby boy has grown into a independent, smart, sensitive young man. He can drive me crazy with his perfectionist quirks, but can melt my heart with his inviting open arms for some cuddles with mom. He is so concerned with what others think and feel, which can be to his detriment at times. He has recently taken a love for sports (especially football) with has created a special bond with him and Brice. I love to see them curl up together to watch a game or pile up all of my couch cushions for a game of catch. He has such a soft spot for his baby sister, and a not so soft spot for his little sis. They can be the best of friends and the worst of enemies. He loves music and thinks he is "so cool" with his new MP3 player (best $20 I ever spent). He is a protector to his 2 sisters but will always be my baby boy. I love you Caden.
