Weighing in at 9 pounds, 13 ounces, Eric was then and remains today the biggest boy in the family!
Eric began a full-time job at the new Lowe's Distribution Center in Lebanon last Monday. He spent last week in Orientation and this week began working graveyard, which is four ten-hour days, Monday-Thursday, 6:30 PM-4:30 AM. It sounds like a good company to work for with many opportunities.
So Eric now works only one job, and like most adults, has to work on his birthday. His father and I took him and Molly out to a late lunch today at Los Dos Amigos and he's going to have friends over for pizza and Guitar Hero on Friday evening.
He had an unexpected gift come his way last week. He brought home a guitar case, opened it up, and brought out a 12-string guitar, which he proceeded to make beautiful music on. He said Molly's brother-in-law Matt invited him to come over and look over some guitars that he was ready to get rid of. Eric was drawn to the 12-string and asked how much he wanted for it. Matt told him a story about someone giving it to him years ago, and said since it was given to him, he couldn't sell it. So he gave it to Eric. Eric said he will continue to tradition and give it away to someone years from now!
Happy Birthday, Eric. You are a genuinely nice person and we really like you a lot!
