HAPPY BIRTHDAY ZACH!!!

Dear Zach,

Today you would have turned 17. Oh what fun that would've been to see. Your mom misses you so much. You birthday is the hardest. I was teasing her the other day saying you are the mother of a 17 year old and a newborn. She laughed. It's so nice to hear her laugh again. I know you are celebrating with Jesus today but please send some sweet kisses down to your mom and dad today. We all miss you so. I still have in my mind the day I came back to church after having Linus and your mom just had Abby and I told you that you couldn't hold him cuz you had your own baby. I'm so sorry for that. If I could change back time to then, I would've given him to you in a heartbeat. You were always so awesome with babies. You knew how to get them to giggle. Oh the memories are coming back to me. I only knew you for a short amount of time but through your mother, I feel like I've know you forever.

Happy Birthday Zach. I look forward to the day when we can all see each other again. What a day of rejoicing that will be.

Sweetly,
Eugene, Kelly & Linus
