Happy "Belated" Birthday, Asher!

I had to steal these pictures of my great-grandson, Asher, who lives in Ohio, on his third birthday yesterday. This is what his Mother, Caitlynn, had to say about him: On your special day and always, Asher, you're a source of pure joy and limitless possibility. Your spark of curiosity and silliness spreads happiness wherever you go. Your mama couldn't be more proud of her amazing 3-year-old! I love you so much. Happy birthday, Bud. xoxo

Happy 3rd Birthday, Asher! 

I love you so much!

Great Gran Gran
