On January 18th, Gideon will be 6 years old. We never imagined having this many years with Gideon. Knowing you’re going to bury your child someday is a sobering reminder of the brevity of human life.
This year for his birthday, instead of more vibrating and light up toys, we are taking him and his siblings to Great Wolf Lodge for a night. Because being in the water is Gideon’s most favorite thing in the world.
People often want to send gifts for his birthday, but since it falls right after Christmas, he always has plenty of gifts. But if you feel like you want to send something, we ask that you’d send a birthday card to the post office box address below. Our plan is to read them to Gideon while we are in the hotel. Not sure how much he’ll understand (or even hear) but words/notes of encouragement always translate joy.
Thanks for loving our little guy.

There’s my sweet smiley face boy. I’ve missed seeing you. Happy 6th Birthday. You’ve grown up so fast I must have blinked and you grew up. Your such a sweet smart little boy. I’m so happy your mom and dad shared you with us.
