Lars,

It’s no secret.  You are kind, gracious, strong and hilarious. (This is obviously not an exhaustive list.  But it’s a start.)

Thank you for sharing your story with me.  I know that senior pictures aren’t necessarily at the top of a guy’s list, but thank you for trusting me enough to spend part of your birthday with me.  (By the way – so glad you were born.)  I cannot wait to cheer you on as you finish this year and partner with God to keep writing a really incredible story.

Also – thank you for tolerating my slightly pathetic 8-year old jokes.

You’re incredible,
Amy

PS: Can we just pause and talk for a minute about how much I love your mom?  She’s just amazing and fabulous and can you convince her to come visit me sometime?!?  Thank you, friend!
