Meet my son Mike, AKA "2Wicked".
Today is his birthday - so 25 years ago it truly was "labor day" for me. In honor of his 25 years, I made a banner of Mikey through the years. The biggest challenge is that Mike is the 3rd child, you know what that means, he raised himself he was a little left out of the photos. The first child you take 1000 photos the first year (I think I had 1000 the first month) and 500 each year after, the 2nd child gets 500 photos the first year and 350 each year after, the 3rd child gets - well lets just say it might look like we adopted him when he was three and then he didn't live with us from the ages of 13 through 16. And then he lived with us but we had our first grandson and thank goodness that we took a thousand pics of the new grandbaby because Mike was in some of those. So if you're reading this and about to have your 3rd child - take note because at some point that 3rd child will notice that you are a little thin on pics of them. After finding a respectable number of pictures, scanning them (remember film - without a choice of a digital copy), resizing, printing, cutting out and putting on the party hat, this is what it looked like made into a banner and hung across the gazebo. 
It was fun for everyone to see him at different stages of his life and fun for the grandkids to see him when he was their age.
Happy Labor Day! -Laurie
