Driving

On Friday October 22, Gage became a licensed driver and the streets of the Metroplex will never be the same!

Gainfully employed

Gage is starting his new job in a few weeks! He is going to be working at the place where his dad scarred him for life by making him ride the Black Hole. 

toughness

He experienced some heartbreak and maintained his focus through it all.  Very proud of this young man!

Where's Gage?

Maturity

Okay aside from the over-the-top goofiness Gage exhibits, I have noticed maturity in him lately.  Just little things that he gets mainly from his mom.  It is rewarding to me as a parent to watch these subtleties in his maturation process.  Now, if I can convince him not to wear his wool letter jacket to school on a 100 degree day!

Theology

I'm proud of my son's theology.  He knows we're saved by grace through faith and that all sin is offensive to God. 

Sweet 16!!

Happy Birthday to my 16 year old Unicorn!

Good

He's not perfect, but he's a good kid. 

The Actor

I'm slacking on just about all of my blogs especially this one and Tina's.  A few weeks ago, Gage was in the play "Beauty and the Beast".  He played a knife and a villager.  Hey, you have to pay your dues until you're a senior.  He did a fine job holding his ale and singing the praises of Gaston! 

Reader

Gage spent the past couple of days reading 300 pages of a book non-stop!  A refreshing alternative to Xbox and TV if you ask me.
