The Firstborn...


The firstborn has to be really patient while the new parents figure it all out.
The firstborn has to understand when the parents make him perform for every visitor.
The firstborn is the one the parents practice on.
The firstborn is the one who tries everything once, so the next batch won't have to.
The firstborn is the one the parents rely on to teach them new technology.
The firstborn is the natural born leader.
The firstborn is the boss of the second and third-born.
The firstborn is the one who doesn't have to have hand-me-downs.
The firstborn is the one who speaks up when others won't.
The firstborn is the first love of the parents.

Our firstborn is the one who gets things done.
Our firstborn is the one who remembers ALL the relatives who have died.
Our firstborn is the one who makes sure his Dad has an Ipod.
Our firstborn is the one who checks to see if his Mom needs anything when Dad's away.
Our firstborn is the one who shares everything he has.
Our firstborn will remind his parents when they're off track.
Our firstborn is the one who will stay up all night long to write a song for the family.
Our firstborn is our leader.
Our firstborn is our pride and joy.
Our firstborn is our first love.

Happy 35th, Firstborn Love!

That's so sweet Mom. I feel so blessed to have had Freddy go before me and Ike. We couldn't have asked for a better example.
