Today is Zack's 15th Birthday....It's hard to believe that my baby is 15. He was born a 5 1/2 lb. 19 inch long precious boy. We had been trying 3 years to have him and finally God answered our prayers. He is now 6' 1" young man. We are very proud of Zack and all that he has already accomplished.
We took him and a few of his friends to lunch today and his favorite place, Kanpai of Toyko. The waiter gave him a hat, some chopsticks and made him a "rice cake".
