Has it really been only 12 short years ago that we were given our very special gift?? What a great gift you have been. We feel blessed to call you our son - and we know that God has BIG plans for your life. We will never forget the day, at nine months old, when we were told you had a severe heart disease - that we needed to take you to the ER - to prepare for an extended hospital stay and not to leave your side because we wouldn't be taking you home. But God was bigger than any heart disease and He gave your heart power that the doctors didn't even know it had! And we are still in amazement some 12 years later when the doctors say they can't believe your heart ever had problems - that it looks stronger than ever - that can only be God!! We love you, Caleb and pray BIG things for your life! We're just glad that God chose to give you to us to be your parents - you are a blessing! Happy Birthday Big Guy!!
