Dear Mr. Kyle

I have been looking at your pictures of you from when you were born and I can hardly believe it has been eleven years sense I had you snuggled up to me in the hospital. I remember when you were just a toddler that you were into Everything! Nothing was safe. When you were about three I made you your first super hero shirt and that shirt would barely come off so that I could wash it. Around age 4 you became Obsessed with Spiderman. You were always were holding up your fingers like you were shooting webs. About that same time, you discovered that you had ex-ray vision. You could see through clothes! But, if it was a woman you saw right to her veins. You were also asking for your first set of "Knockers" so that you could go birding with your dad. You have always loved being with your dad. Weather it was out on an adventure or tagging along while he went to work, you loved just being with him.
Do you remember when you had a really bad bike accident and I thought I would loose you? That still brings tears to my eyes thinking of it. I remember going to the temple shortly after that and hearing Heavenly Father speak to me. He told me not to worry. That you would be okay because he has great plans for you in this life. That brought peace to my soul and I know that you are chosen to do many great and wonderful things. If you can remember to head the promptings of the Holy Ghost, even if it doesn't make sense to you at the time, he will help you with all that is required.
You have been a really great big brother to your sisters. You are just like your father and you Loved to hold the babies. (sometimes you loved them so much you squeezed a little hard or laid right on them) You were the first to ride a bike, go to school, and get baptized. You have become so responsible and I am so happy to see you helping around our home and helping/playing with your sisters. Thank you for being such a great kid.
You are growing Way too fast! Stop It! Pretty soon you will be looking down at me when you hug me instead of me at you.
Thanks for being a part of our family. Thanks for your smiles. Thanks for you laughter. Thanks for scaring me- even though I throttle you when you do-. Thanks for just being you.

WE LOVE YOU! 
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
Love,
Mom

Mr Kyle - Happy birthday!!! Can't believe that our oldest grandkid is 11.
Wish we lived closer so I could come play games with you when you are bored.
Love you - G & G Mortensen
