#8 - Landon Barrett



You came from a world of girls. You married a non-sports watching or deer-shooting husband. With Lindsey, you had become accustomed to bows and dolls and sweet girl stuff.


And then came Landon.


He is all boy. He loves to play, climb, wrestle, shoot, fish, and float. He came into our world as a 9 pound force to be reckoned with and his testosterone-filled heart hasn't let up since.


As a 100% girly-girl, you have adjusted and accommodated this young man into your life with grace and beauty. But the way you have tried to connect with him and try to get into his world over the years has been a thing of beauty. So, while simply having a son like Landon has been a Highlight, raising him and trying to prepare him for life has been a thrill. And I am glad that I have you to share it with.


I don't know exactly what God has in store for that young man of ours, but I can't wait to see what it is! And the fact that he is our son makes me honored to know that we will be a part of it.
