Today is our son Matthew’s birthday! Our world is a better place because of Matt. Those of you that know him, know what I mean.<\/p>\n

In Matt’s world you can never have too many hugs. Every morning should start with a hug and end with at least ten!<\/p>\n

Every day is a great day!\u00a0If you tell Matt to have a great day, he replies, “Mom, I always have a great day!” And then he smiles…<\/p>\n

He has taught us so many things about what is really important in life – its not about what you have. It’s not about where you are going \u00a0and when you will get there. It’s all about living life to the fullest and at the top of your lungs. Yes, some volume knobs go to eleven. Especially when he is watching a Rider game. Family and friends are everything to Matt.<\/p>\n

“When I see him smile
\nIt fills me up with gladness,
\nHe’s sunshine and he’s laughter all combined.
\nHe picks me up, he cheers me through the bad times.
\nA wondrous thing, my son and I.”<\/p>\n
