Happy Birthday Anziano Roberts (aka Charlie!)

I got this wonderful idea of spotlighting our family on their birthday's from my sister who is really good at this. So, we start our year with our first born son Charlie. I didn't realize it would be emotional difficult to say good things about your child..but holy cow! Charlie has always been close to his brothers especially Josh. Always finding the positive in difficult situations, and has a personality that shines like no other.
He absolutly loves his cousins. Whether it's dressing up for a late movie or DI dates, or just having fun. Charlie includes everyone.
These are the three that have literally grown up together. They've done music camps, movies, chat's long into the night. Never a busy or unentertaining moment when these three "adults" are together...their birthdays are all in the same month, just different years...but who looks at that!
Charlie has set a wonderful example for Bryant and Jacob to follow. He is serving the Lord in the Milan Italy mission. His testimony has grown and love for the gospel has reached the high mountains, so to speak. Charlie has never once in his letters regreted his decission to serve the Lord, to this we are very greatful.
He is such a happy missionary. Seeing his grow from boy then to young man, and now...wow! We do miss him, I'm not going to lie...but he is doing wonderful...he won't read this until July when he returns...but, I was thinking about him today on his special day.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY....ANZIANO CHARLES L. ROBERTS!!!!
