When my eldest child, Noah, was a baby, Ryan came up to visit. I had nicknamed Noah Bubba Joe. Ryan asked me how I could be so mean. What if he grew up a skinny little thing with a nickname like Bubba Joe? Well, he was right! Noah is now 12 years old and a skinny, short guy, but he is a tough cookie. I'm glad all 3 of my kiddos got to meet Ryan a few years ago, even if the girls are to young to remember. I will never forget our Sunday trips to Applebee's, Ryan. Never.
