Jonathan Tyler Cooper was born on January 6, 1994.  He is the oldest of our biological children.  He was the cutest thing that I had ever laid my eyes on.  Nothing could have prepared me for the good/bad/ugly and fantastic that was going to come with being a "Mommy"! What a crazy roller coaster.  I had Jonathan at the crazy age of 15, ALL odds were for sure against us.  However, Payton and I were determined to make it work and care for him the best that we could.  

If you have never got the chance to meet Jonathan, well you are sure missing out.  He is by far one if the nicest, most friendlist people that you are sure to meet on this Earth.  He would give you the shirt off of his back, literally! He has a way to make you laugh and always has.  


I remember when he was about 3 Payton and I bought him his first Bible.  It was a precious moments Bible and he carried that thing everywhere he went.  He would go around the house (in only underwear I must add) preaching.  He would have that Bible open and he would just be preaching up a storm.  When we would ask him what he wanted to be when he grew up he would say a preacher.


Well, of course that has all changed now! LOL He does love the Lord but he is not sure what he wants to do as of right now.  He is in 11th grade (homeschooled of course).  He is currently and has always been very into sports.  He can tell you football stats from years ago, even before he was born.  It is really crazy.  He doesn't like to be outside a whole lot.  He mostly enjoys time alone in his bedroom watching TV or playing Playstation or XBOX.  

I am so proud of who he is becoming.  There have been ups and downs as with every teenager but overall I am very lucky to have such a sweet boy.  I am truly blessed and for those who thought it was all a huge mistake 17 1/2 years ago.... well here is proof....It was NOT a mistake. He is a prized possesion, one that God allowed Payton and I to be a part of.  


Here is a link to his favorite song right now.... LOL
