As the original "creator" of the "creator" of WRTN, I want to wish you the happiest of birthdays!On August 8th, 2006, my dream of becoming a Mom finally came true. Jason Elhilow, with all your wild black hair, entered the world to the delight of your mother, father, Grammy, Grampy, and others, who waited patiently to finally meet my first child. You made John Henry a big brother, Nana and Jido grandparents for the 4th time, and were the firstborn of a firstborn, a very special place in our family. That moment was amazing. I cried the next day just looking at you; truly, it was one of the best days of my life.Now you are becoming a Junior, consistently being a High Honors student. You're entering the National Honors Society, was Class President in 10th grade, and now working at your first job (you’re a pretty awesome big brother, too).Your brilliance and maturity astound me, and yet, you are one of the most humble gentlemen I know.I know the future holds great things for you, and I’m so glad I got to be your mother; you humble me every day. My goal is to keep guiding you and your bros as you grow, with no doubt that you all will accomplish whatever you set your minds to.Happy Birthday, Jason!
