30

Happy Birthday Jonathan I'm so proud to call you my brother. I'm proud of who you are as a husband always putting Kelley first. I know this is a crazy time...lets call it a season...and well its CRAZY for you guys but you always put her first and that is awesome. You are a SUPER daddy to the girls and I love how you "date" them. They will remember that all their lives. Be their first boyfriend! I love to see the pride on your face when you are holding one or BOTH of the boys- I know you will raise them to be Godly men of character. I pray this day holds many exciting things for you as you look to the future. We love you and are so proud of you
