HAPPY BIRTHDAY STEPHEN!!!



Stephen, you're an excellent example to us all! And I'm postive you're going to have a great and exciting year! Life is grand and wonderful, the older one gets!! Believe me dude! You are a fine young man-that the world will take notice of-no doubt!

Im going to steal some rhymes from dear old Dr Seuss---










Congratulation!
Today is your day.
You're off to Great Places!
You're off and away!

You have brains in your head.
You have feet in your shoes.
You can steer yourself
any direction you choose
.
You're on your own. And you know what you know.
And YOU are the guy who'll decide where to go.

You'll look up and down street. Look 'em over with care.
About some you will say, "I dont choose to go there."
With your head full of brains and your shoes full of feet,
you're too smart to go down any not-so-good street.

OH!!
THE PLACES YOU'LL GO!!!

You'll be on your way up!
You'll be seeing great sights!
You'll join the high fliers
who soar to high heights.

You wont' lag behind, because you'll have the speed.
You'll pass the whole gang and you'll soon take the lead.
Wherever you fly, you'll be the best of the best.
Wherever you go, you will top all the rest.

You'll find the bright places
where Boom Bands are playing.


With banner flip-flapping,
Ready for anything under the sky.
Ready because you're that kind of guy!

Oh, the places you'll go! There is fun to be done.
There are points to be scored. There are games to be won.
And magical things you can do with that ball
will make you the winning-est winner of all.

And will you succeed?
Yes! You will, indeed!
(98 and 3/4 percent guaranteed.)
KID, YOU'LL MOVE MOUNTAINS

So...
be your name Buxbaum, or Bixby or Bray
or Mordecai Ali Van Allen O'Shea
you're off to Great Places!
Today is the day!
Your mountain is waiting.
So...get on your way!!

Happy, happy birthday Stephen!!
