Cory has been a great blessing to have in our family. We were so excited to welcome him into the world and have enjoyed watching him grow and develop. We will enjoy the continuing years as he continues to grow into a young man that will someday have children of his own.
I still remember sobbing while I was pregnant with him about how my little baby boy was going to grow up, get married, and leave me. Every year it comes closer to becoming true.
