Happy 8th Birthday to my Middle Daughter

My dearest Abbey,

Congratulations...you have made it to the age of 8. This is going to be a defining year for you my love. You are going to experience many new things that your older sister has been able to do including your baptism. I hope you are excited about your baptism as it is a very important part of your life as well as your confirmation.

I have been so proud of your accomplishments this past year. You have made your mother and I very proud to be your parents. I look at you today and marvel at the young woman you are becoming. I remember first holding you when you were born and cried my eyes out. You were so beautiful and precious and innocent. My love for you has only grown as I have watched you grow and learn.

I know I imparted some wisdom (if you can call it that) to you the last time I did this, I would like to do so again. You are about to be baptized. You will have my hands placed on your head to receive the holy ghost. Once you have received this most precious gift please listen to Him. Follow the Holy Ghost's counsel. He will always be with you as long as you listen to that still small voice. Let Him guide you and you will never be led astray.

I love you more than words can explain. You have been and always will be my baby girl. I hope you have a wonderful day on this your birthday.

Love always and forever,

Your Father

Happy Birthday to my Wonderful Wife

My dearest Love,

Today is your special day. You are now another year older, another year wiser, another year more beautiful in my eyes. You have been my best friend, my lover, my comforter, and most of all my soul mate. We have been through the refiners fire more times than I wish to count. But through it all we have become closer as husband and wife, mother and father, and of course, as best friends.

Happy Birthday to you and I wish the very best today on your day. I wish I could give you the world today. I hope you will settle for the gift I do have for you. I love more and more every day and thank our Heavenly Father for the precious gift He has given me in you and your eternal love.

I love you always and forever,

Your Romeo

Happy 9th Birthday to My Emma

My Darling Baby Girl Emma,

Wow, where has the time gone? I still remember holding you in my arms when you were born and saying a silent prayer to Heavenly Father, thanking him for the little blessing I held in my arms and asking him for strength and guidance as I started on this new path of being a father.



I still remember you crawling around on floor when we lived in Thatcher with a smile always on your face. I remember how you used to frustrate mommy and daddy every time you pulled the movies off the shelf.


And then time went on and your sisters inevitably followed after you. I think you have found that being the oldest has its privileges... as well as its downfalls. One thing is for sure and that is that I will always love you with all my heart. You are my eldest and will always hold a special place in my heart. You were a beautiful baby girl and you have continued to blossom into a

beautiful young lady and I can only suspect that you will grow into a beautiful woman, inside and out.

When I did this for your sister, I tried to impart some of my knowledge to her. So I will do the same to you. My one true wish for you is responsibility. As I have said before, you are the eldest. Your sisters look up to you to lead them and teach them. In order to do that, you must first be responsible for your own actions and their consequences. You have been baptized. You have been given the gift of the Holy Ghost. Listen to His still small voice and you will always make the right choice. He will help you be more responsible. He will help guide you as you help guide your sisters.

I love you my eldest baby. I have watched you grow and marvel everyday at what the new things you learn. Don't forget our Heavenly Father. Thank Him, pray to Him for all that he has given you. Study your scriptures and I promise that you not be led astray.

I will always Love you. I will always be here for you.

Love always and forever,


Your father

Happy Mothers Day

To my dearest Mother,

You have always been there for me. You have shown me right from wrong. You have helped me become the man, husband, and father I am today. Because of the tenderness, love and compassion that you had shown me, I have been able to pass those same feelings unto my children and wife today. Because of the lessons I have learned from you I more fully respect and honor the sacred power of womanhood and am able to more fully love my wife the way a man of God should.

I wish I could put into words more of how grateful I am for all the sacrifices that you gave to us.
I love you more than anything and I hope you have a wonderful Mothers Day.

Happy Mothers Day Mom!!

Love Always,

Your Eldest 'Baby'
