HAPPY BIRTHDAY Charlie! Today would mark your 26th birthday.Everyone misses you so much.I still miss you so much it hurts.Ethan and CJ are growing like weeds and Ethan is more and more like you everyday.

Well Charlie.... it's Super Bowl Sunday and the Steelers made it.I know they weren't your team,but I know you always wanted Kinney's team to make it too. Ethan has been talking a lot about you this week and he got in trouble for the first time in school.I think he's starting to put things in perspective more now that he's a little older and understanding more.I think he's a little sad and angry so his behavior has been like a roller coaster this last week. CJ is doing good...it's hard to believe he's already a year old.You have a red head with that one.He has gray/green eyes and a goofy personality. I think he's going to be a clown like you were. Both boys are very close and Ethan looks out for CJ pretty good for a boy who's not quite 4. Thinking a lot about you and miss you more than words can say.

It doesn't seem like 14 months since you've been gone.Now we are entering yet another year without you and it is still just as hard.Ethan misses you,but is doing great and CJ is a clown just like you were at that age.Miss you lots!
