Ben is a Senior!!!

I'm constantly amazed at how time flies.

My little brother, Ben, is a senior! Yep, he's graduating in about a month.

Seriously I can't take it. I remember the day he was born like it was last night. I was eight and we lived in small town, KS. Staying with family friends while mom was in the hospital was scary. But when he came it was all worth it. Ben was a miracle baby. For awhile I argued that there was a mix up at the hospital. Some yellow Asian family was surely enjoying my brother. Mom assured me that he was our boy, and he just had a little jaundice. Look how he turned out...

A Handsome Schmale!

I love you so much, B! I can't wait for the adventurous road ahead of you. I'm so thankful to be a part of it.

For Ben's 16th birthday he got a 1972 Chevelle. While it's not his favorite car, (he also drives the '97 Ford Ranger (Walker) that I drove for seven years), he likes it ok.

Jessica, I am so pleased with Ben's senior pics. What a blessing to have his big sister be such an amazing photographer. It was a bonus that you and Ben had so much fun spending time together taking them. Thank you! You're a good big sis!! Love you! Your mom...and Ben's

I mean, who would want a '72 Chevelle when the 70's are clearly far superior...
