Happy Birthday, KYLE part 1

WOW!  Thirty years of living and loving to celebrate, Kyle.  Each year I think about your crazy birth day... making it to the hospital just in time, barely escaping giving birth to you in the car...how my life drastically changed from that moment on...:-)   We've barely squeezed in a birthday cake for you these past couple years, so this year I thought I'd go public with some photos and memories just like I did with Sam.  
Isaac might be interested in knowing that his dad also played the role of Mary in our family re-enactment of the Christmas story.
What fun you and Sam had chasing each other in and out of the drainage ditch that day!
Surveying your conquered kingdom at the playground....
We simply had to have a picture of your fire truck minus the ladders in one of its imaginative make-overs.  Don't know what the stickers were for that day, but I do know they changed it into a different kind of vehicle because you would rearrange them with with much thought and conversation on a regular basis.  I wish I had pictures of all the bikes and shoes you painted over the years.
You and Sam in early conversation.  Your relationship started off on rough footing,  according to David, when you popped Sam in the face when he was a few days old.  But before long you were playing together all the time, you leading and Sam following, you setting the imaginative scenario,  Sam following your lead to make your vision come to life.  Which worked fine until it was no longer simply you and Sam!Since David and I  cannot remember what you were saying to Sam in this photo, we invite your family and friends to offer creative captions.

I had to divide these photos between two posts, so keep reading below.

I can really see Kyle in Issac from these pictures.
