happy birthday

Wow I can't believe my son is turning 18 today. Seems like just yesterday he was a rolly polly baby, entering the world at 9lbs 4 oz. We thought he would never walk, but finally did at 17months. He is so witty and humourus. I love his smile. He is kind and thoughtful. Writes beautiful mother's day poems:

You're our mother, whom we share

Doing everything and even more.

thanks is something we don't often say,

but this family loves you all the way.

Have a warm and loving Mother's Day.

Isn't that sweet! We are celebrating on Friday night with a surprise party!!! turning 18 here means you are legal to drink. He had a deal with his dad that he wouldn't drink until he was 18 and if held out he would receive $1000. Well we are a little poorer but proud of him. Now we gear up for parties, graduation, jobs, university etc etc. another chapter in life is opening.

p.s. I still have his graduation quilt to start using 20 fat quarters of music/guitar related fabric in blacks, browns, white red, multi coloured guitars

. Can you help me out with a pattern to use?
