Happy 16th Birthday Blake!!!

Today was a big day for the Solomon family. Steve and I have officially been parents for 16 wonderful years!  Blake is celebrating the big 16 today! The most exciting part for him is the passing of  his driver's test and driving himself to school alone for the first time.   He had an inschool wrestling match which was another fun and exciting part. It was fun for him to pin his guy in front of the entire school! Blake is an amazing person. Each day I am in awe at his choices and the way he lives his life. He pushes himself above and beyond. I love the example he is to our other children and to me.  I wish I could make the grades he makes and work out half as much as he does!!!  He shines with goodness. I am honored to be his mother and blessed to be trusted with one of Heavenly Father's valiant sons to raise.
