Vance Turner Cowart Is EIGHT!!!!!

My sweet Vance is 8!!!

I know I always say....I can't believe how fast time goes but....I CAN"T BELIEVE THIS CUTE BOY IS EIGHT!!!!! 

When I look at Vance I can see the special young boy he is!! Vance and I have always had a special bond! Posey and Ben lived with Tom and I when Vance was born. I loved snuggling with Vance! He was such a beautiful, sweet baby! I especially looked forward to that time of evening when Posey would bring Vance into my room and I would give him his nightly bottle. I would just stare at his darling face and squeeze him just about as tight as I could!! Vance and I will always have a special connection! Of course when a grand kid says...Mima, let me open your door for you or.....Mima you are so pretty,...Mima is their anything you need?....Mima I love being with you.....Mima, do you need your feet rubbed..... and the list goes on! This kid loves me in-spite of all my imperfections as a grand mother! I guess what I am saying Vance and I truly have a special connection that I feel we will always have! 

I could not be more proud or happy for Vance on this day! Vance has looked forward to his Baptism more than his presents he received on his birthday which was May 31! For several years Vance has asked me....Mima where do you think I will go on my mission! Vance will always... Argentina, because this is where his dad served but lately I have been able to get Vance to consider....Hawaii, Hartfort CT and Italy where his uncle's have served! Not sure where this cute boy will serve but the one thing I do know is....Where ever the Lord calls Vance to serve, Vance will be one of the Lord's elite!! 

One very proud Pops!!! AND TWO VERY HANDSOME BOYS!!!!!

I love this picture. This was as we left the Chapel walking to the baptismal fount. Vance just wanted to walk with Mima and visit for a few minutes!!!

I love this picture! Uncle Joe, Uncle Rhett and Uncle Walker are pretty dang proud of Vance!

I LOVE LOVE LOVE this beautiful picture!! The 3 amigos!! AND future missionaries!! 

Noah, Vance and Brogram!! 

Love these 3 little warriors!!!

I think Vance looks more like Walker's son than Posey's son! CUTIES!!!!! Uncle Rhett LOVES this kid too! Vance is Rhett's wrestling partner! I have never seen a kid that loves to wrestle like Vance! Even when Uncle Rhett finally gets Vance to "tap out". But I have to say Vance is one tough kid....even after Vance has "tapped out" He is still laughing and come back for more wrestling and 'take downs" with Uncle Rhett! These two are buddies! But truly I feel like Vance is a perfect buddy for everyone! Vance is just a tender sweet boy who truly is filled with love!

Vance I just want you to know how very much I love you!!! Pops and I are so very proud of you!!! Mima is so very grateful for you and the sweet special boy you are!

Happy Birthday Vance!

I LOVE YOU VANCE TURNER COWART!!!

Forever,

Mima
