Happy Birthday Chantz (a little late of course!)

I know I am a little late on this post so sorry about that--I have set yet another goal to get caught up! It was whole different experience for our family to celebrate Chantz's birthday while he is on his mission.  (I'm not sure I really like it but only one more to go!)  I definitely think they should get to call home on their birthdays so we can sing to them (I know it is a little selfish--and Mother's Day is coming up but I thought  it was a great idea!)  I hope Chantz knows how much we love him and how proud we are of him and the choice he made to serve a mission!
