How in the world is he 13? Ryan, you have had the hugest year of growth of your life this year! You continue to grow and mature. The man you are becoming and the young man that you are, is strong, hard working, well mannered, respectful. You have completely outgrown your previous ways of reacting and dealing with frustrating situations. You are calm and have such a sensitivity for the world. You love dogs are little kids. You have shown yourself what a strong student you are (what's up honor roll this whole year?). You continue to be hilarious. I am in true awe of you. Your soul is pure beauty. Happy 13th, my love!! I love you.
