Colin turned 18 years old today! He asked for lottery tickets. He won a couple bucks! He is now out celebrating with friends. Excited about adulthood! I told him the promise of adulthood isn't all it's cracked up to be! He doesn't believe me yet! He did get a nice surprise in the mail today. An academic scholarship from Barton County. Money he will both need and appreciate this fall!
Colin is a kid who has constantly kept us guessing and entertained. On my way to summer league basketball with Cameron, he texted to say after work he was buying himself a kayak for his birthday. And so he did. So did his future roommate. They have been kayaking as part of their daily workouts. I am not quite sure what prompted this newfound hobby, but as 18 year olds go, it seems harmless! Colin is always willing to try new things. He works hard at the things he tries and he usually is fairly successful at most of the stuff he does. We are very proud of you and love you bunches buddy! Happy birthday!
Side note....cake was made and decorated by Preston who is discovering a love for baking this summer.
