this one is for my youngest (don't worry guys, your time will come: ). my minky! your nana has always said that people should know this about you: they could either lead, follow, or get out of your way. matt, you have always seemed to know what you wanted. sometimes it has been very hard to get there but you persevere and reach those goals.

if someone needs to get something done they just need to see you. you have always had that bulldog tenacity, sometimes to your brothers dismay! you're very sensitive and care very deeply. i love the love you have for God. even when church was hard to endure you never lost your faith.

i know that the fact that your brothers always seemed to be more popular than you was difficult for you at times but you learned that to have several close friends was just as good as having a lot of friends. and the wonderful thing is you married your best friend! i can't tell you how happy i am for you for that fact.

i love the ability you have in music. i love to hear you sing and play. i like the fact that you like to hang out with your family, too.we really have fun together. i like the fact that family is important to you. i think that it is neat that you love history and you are so knowledgeable about it. you have a lot of your pepere in you. you want to get ahead. you're always looking for the best way to do something, willing to go the extra mile. i love the way you love and care about your wife. and i am so happy that you are so happy.

i am so proud of you, my youngest. i love you very much!!
