Youth is a Flower

I am the father of 5 children - 4 boys and 1 girl. Today is the 16th birthday of my youngest son, Austin. We enjoyed a wonderful dinner tonight and shared gifts with him. Sixteen is such a wonderful time. Do you remember it???? Tomorrow night we are going to a Blake Shelton Concert in celebration!!!

 

I photographed this rose by candle light this evening after dinner. It is part of a bouquet given to my wife, Kimberly, by a youngster who is a cancer survivor. Kimberly is a physical therapist and has volunteered time with Chip for 18 months or so and developed a very close relationship Chip and his family. Chip sent her flowers and paid for them with his savings.

 

Chip - we love you and wish you the BEST!
