Dad today is mom's  60th birthday and I wish you were here to spend it with us.....but remembering mom's birthdays from the past when you were here brought me to one birthday where you left the house with the kids and mom kinda got angry because you weren't really feeling good and you didn't let us know where you and the kids were going.....but yall got back and yall went to the room and came back out shortly after with some cards and gifts from the kids to give mom. Mom opened the cards and gifts from the kids then opened your card up and read it and started laughing because the card read something along the lines of  " Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you baby," and on the inside it said "Who's your daddy?? Happy birthday!" It was the funniest card ever dad. Anyways dad I love you and I know you are here with us today and everyday in spirit.....we all love you and miss you stop by and see mom today. Love ya always and forever!

The day I had Ruben you brought mom, Leena and Zac up to see Ruben and I after you got off work......in came Leena and Zac full of smiles on both of their chubby lil faces, then in come mom, and then you. Ruben was laying on the bed right next to me and you just kept starring and I asked you what was wrong, and you said "well where is the Damn baby?" I said he is right here next to me dad! You looked and said "that, that's not a baby, that's a Damn baby buddah!" I laughed hell we all laughed and I started hurting so bad from the staples...that I told you too quit making me laugh.........of course that didn't happen but I wouldn't trade it for the world! Now our baby buddah, isn't a Buddha baby anymore....he's a ripped lil 14 year old that you would be so proud of dad!
