Happy Birthday Jodes!

My little brother, Jordan turned 17 on the 22nd. I can't believe it! Throughout his whole birthday I kept thinking of how fast his life has flown by and how much he has already accomplished in only those 17 years! It also got me teary eyed to think that in two years he will be leaving on his mission. I cannot comprehend what that day's going to be like...to have the baby gone and my parents home empty! I don't like to think about it! Jordan is a very special boy. He was a miracle baby in the first place. He was the cutest little boy...full of energy and a great ball player! He was such a good sport about having three older sisters always around in his years of growing up, making him play barbies. dressing him up as a girl...you know the usual. Jordan has a huge heart. He has grown into such a good looking young man and is an AMAZING basketball player and golfer for that matter. He can play any sport really. He makes friends easily, he's quite the tease, hilarious, always a good sport about everything, and always a joy to be around. I have always felt very protective of Jordan and tend to take his side on anything. I have always been very close to him and love him so much. He is such a fun and sweet uncle to Annie and the other girls. She just loves him! Happy Birthday Jodes. I love you!!!
