Jordin McKenzie.........

Jordin Mckenzie Curtis where oh were do I begin?? He is my oldest child. He is a good helper, worker, student (most of the time), handsome, has manners, and is just an all around good kid.. He is my child that I think was content with staying in the womb and not coming out... His original due date was August 4th and he was finally born on August 20th, 1993. He weighed in at 8 pounds 3 ounces.
In his 17 years of life he has been through, seen and expierenced many things.. Some good, some bad, but to look at him and talk to him you would not know..  The morning after he was born we packed up in Nana's car and moved 650 miles back to Missouri.. (no I did not want to move back, but my mother thought she was the boss) This move was in 93 when everything up here had flooded and so instead of a 10-12 hour ride is was like 14-16 of course we stopped a few extra times so I could stretch, feed and change the baby.. His father lives in Ky and has never seen or met him and it makes me sad because I know what a great kid Jordin is and well he and his wife are missing out..
I am going to say this about Jordin, praise the Lord for insurance.. I am telling you I think we could have bought a hospital, dr's office and paid the dr's salary with all the money that has been spent by us and the insurance on this kid.. It used to be the joke that he was in the er at least once a year.. He would fall and bust his head, or take his own money and buy a pocket knife and slice his hand on Christmas eve, get bitten by his uncles rot, or get hurt on the farm, you name it this kid had accident written all over for awhile, but praise the Lord I think we have broken this cycle.. (knocking on wood, like real wood.)
This kid is one heck of a kid.. He plays softball, basketball, track and loves to hunt, fish and work on the farm..
Jordin McKenzie Curtis mom loves you and is so very proud of you.. You have given me much joy, love, proud moments and some hold your breath and wonder moments. I loved you before you were born and love you so much more than you know.. You have made me so proud in these past 17 years and I know you will give me mucho more.. Love you so much...




scrub pants and boots..


I love you son,

God Bless
