Happy Birthday, Kenneth!

треј-и-јас

My oldest son Kenneth will turn 18 this week. It is hard for me to believe he is a grown man already. It seems like five years ago he was a little guy running around and climbing on everything. When he was less than a year old, можеше да се закачи од својата вежба и да си ги земе играчките
