Happy Birthday, Cy!

                                My goodness.  Was that REALLY 40 years ago?

I don't think anyone else got a Baby Arrival announcement :)

Something about these 2 pics grabs at my heart.

You were always such a good baby, Cy. (And I know I've told you this before.)

Oh my.  I just want to rip the years away and kiss those cheeks and tickle you all over.  

Sometimes I think I don't want to see any big pictures of you; I think I just want to see little pictures.

But that's only sometimes.  Because seeing you big?  How that makes me smile.  You became my champion early on, Cy, and you probably don't know this.  You weather the bad times and relish the good times.  

And the years have continued to grow you good and grow you well.  

You are still my champion.  

                                          You will always be my Cy, always be my heart.

And then this one came along and there were 2 of you. 

Constancy follows you and builds you; you love well. 

  It's no wonder to me that Brent has such love for you and holds you in such esteem.  "Cy has always had my back," he told me one lazy, summer evening on the patio.  And you've always had mine, too. 

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, DEAR BOY

And, PS.  As soon as you send me those names and addresses, I'll do my best to get this one and others here to help blow out your candles :)
