My son, Mathew, turned 28 yesterday. It's just so hard for me to believe he's that age. I remember me at that age and it doesn't seem like that long ago...

(This picture was taken about 4 years ago)
My sister thought it would be cool to play a joke on me so
she took this picture of Mathew with his arm in a tattoo sleeve.
I thought it was real and
called him in about
two seconds flat and asked him:
"What the heck were you thinking???"
He asked what I was talking about....
I said, "Your arm looks awfully decorated!"
He says, "Doesn't it look great!?"
He didn't tell me it was a tattoo sleeve for a few minutes....
Then he told me it was my sister's idea!!!
Well, this is one of many things I love about him....
He can make me laugh...
Mathew, Happy Birthday!
P.S. It's not that I don't like tattoos. It's just that one! I know he has a couple but nothing like that one on his arm.

Congratulations! You barely look a few years over 28. You had him when you were 6?
Enjoy this day of remembering all the great times of the last 28 years.

Happy birthday, Matthew! Kim, you've raised a handsome young man you can be proud of.
Congratulations! What a beautiful family ~ he is so very lucky to have such an awesome mom!
Elena (My GF) got a kick out of that tattoo picture when I told her the story. Thank you for the post and compliments, It's been a great month!
