Luke - Summer 2010

                                               

Where. To. Begin. The beginning is the best.

18 years ago last Friday, Luke was born. His family had been stationed in AK at the time. Winter swirled outside as he came into the world to say hello with his cry. I remember the night he was born. Almost like yesterday :) My uncle called us in the middle of the night to tell us that Luke had arrived. I had a new cousin and he was a fighter! He had come a bit early, according to some. I know he came at just the right time, it was God's time. I met him a couple of months later. He was so tiny. Super cute. Cried much. Even cuter. I next remember seeing him when he was three. He wanted me to push him in the stroller :) My uncle asked him who he wanted to be on push duty and he pointed at me. Yes! Being the favorite cousin begins! I love that we're alike some. We could hangout in photography land for hours. Read books for fun - Tuesdays With Morrie and Narnia met through us. Favorite color is green. We like people, like hearing their stories. Love that we're different. Love that he's graduating from high school this year and I could take some of his senior pics. Love his initiative. Love that he listens. Love his quiet heart. To my favorite cousin, Lukee - congratulations! You are loved and I am so excited to see you walk this new road. May HIS grace and faithfulness be by your side as you seek the plans God has for you.
