Stephenson Family Ties The Barn Burnt Down
And Now I See The Moon

Spark is 19!!!

Clarky-Sparky
One of those major notches on a young mans' time-line has arrived for you dear Clark!!! From here on out those nicks in time will start coming at you with alarming speed.

You came to us as another welcomed son.
Anna didnt seem to mind too much that you were a boy and not a sister.


You stuttered through your first couple of years of life. Then your mouth caught up with your brain and you were off running, never looking back!!
...and look, the goofy grins started young too!!!

You may be frustrated being surrounded by lesser brains than yourself...but you're developing true character and the valuable atribute of patience.
We are so proud of you and the man you're becoming. You've been a great brother and a fine, fine son!!!
Happy Birthday Clark! The biggest goof-ball of all-when it comes to picture time!!!
(does this look like 'Elder' Stephenson to anyone???

It's been a crazy week (although most of it self-inflicted trying to fill the time until Scott comes home again) and so I haven't checked blogs in a couple days....but WOW! Congratulations to Clark! Santiago East! He's going to be great. What a special event for your whole family!!!

Happy Birthday Clark!

Sparky Clarky,

You make us smile. Happy Birthday!! Ben & Stephanie were so excited to have you come down to their neck of the woods. Who would have thought that you and Ben would be serving in the same country. Life holds wonderful surprises and blessings. Thanks for your example of handsome righteousness!
