Happy Birthday Dustin !

Dustin,
Where has the time gone ? From your first Easter until your first born child has gone so fast. I could not have asked for a more wonderful Son in the world ! I am so proud of the man you have become. You have achieved all of your goals you set up to achieve. You have a wonderful family,home and career. I remember one of your doctors telling me one time that you would be something in the medical field. You were only about 10 at the time. Who would have guessed you would have been putting people to sleep?! You always worried about your grades and would come home from school telling me that your teacher had averaged your grades wrong, and instead of a 98, you should have had a 99 in that class.LOL!
Early on in your life we knew you would be musical. You loved Church and you would watch closely at the piano player and guitar players. Trying to give you lessons was of know use either. Your piana teacher told me there was no use in me paying her to give you lessons. You were teaching her things. You had an ear for music. Any instrument you picked up you learned to play. That wasnt good enough for you though, you still wanted to read music, so you taught yourself to read music too. What an awesome praise and worship leader your were at Life Church! I will run into people from that church from time to time and they always say how much they miss you there, and wish you hadnt of moved so far away. I hope that you can find a church in Indiana and glorify God with your awesome talents.
I love you with all my heart and want you to know that you are the reason YOU have 4 sisters. It was the joy you brought to my heart from the first day you were born that made me decide I would do this again. Who would have guessed that a little baby boy would send me to China one day, but Yes, you are the reason. Not one time but twice. So, when you come home this summer and the house is chaos, remember its all your fault ! :) I love you so much and now that you have a child of your own Im sure you can understand the love
