Six years. That has a funny sound to it, like it's not-so-little of a kid, and a little closer to big-boyhood than I am comfortable with for my third-born.
Jude, you have always been "Buddy" and "Bud"--just like the plant that's ready to burst into full growth. And I feel that you have been growing explosively--from your chubby baby days into the strapping man-child you are today. We love everything about you--your unusually tan skin, big green-gray eyes and fully-developed brows. That boyish smirk:
...which is often followed by your throaty grunt-giggle that's hilariously contagious. You have a bashful side when you're the center of attention--but your animated side comes out often in full intensity:
And yet you are not lacking a little bit of sweetness that's appropriate for an awnry spirited kid who exudes boyishness on every level.
We love you truly, Jude--and our one desire for you is that you know and serve the Lord Jesus Christ. Whatever life holds for you, this is the one thing that matters.
Proverbs 3:13
How blessed is the man who finds wisdom
And the man who gains understanding.
