HAPPY BIRTHDAY PABLO!

Five years ago today, Grady counted contractions and famously smashed the crystal of Jo Ann's watch tripping up the stairs, Papa drove really fast to Cedars-Sinai, and Jo Ann did all the hard work to deliver...
...P A B L O !
If you know Pablo, you know he is a torpedo of a kid–boundless energy, a buoyant spirit, a husky little voice box, and enough laughs to fill Lambeau Field.

That morning five years ago, he literally F L E W out of Jo Ann and into Dr. Serden's hands. And he hasn't stopped flying since.
This is how we k n o w he's going to KEEP flying as far and as high as he wants in his life.

Here's to a complete and thorough butt-whipping of every cancer cell in Pablo's body. There could be no better bday wish on this special day.


Thanks to all of you friends and family, new and old and even people we don't know who are reading this blog. We can FEEL your love, and your light. Keep it coming!

Our best wishes and love back to you,


Pablo, Grady, Jo Ann and Jeff

Happy, happy day Pablo!! That's such a great baby picture - instantly recognizable as Pablo!

Have a wonderful day. We're very sad as we have awful colds so won't be able to party with you (I was so hoping that they'd be gone by Saturday!), but today more than ever will be thinking of you all and sending positive BIRTHDAY energy your way!
