The Evolution of Me

Time has seen and continues to see the evolution of me. And as we celebrate the passing of another year of my life, I will provide for your viewing pleasure a short photo documentary to illustrate how some things just get better with age.

I was born the youngest of four children. Cute, chubby, and obviously totally adorable, I was loved by all.

As I commenced into school it became apparent that not only was I terribly beautiful, I was also brilliant, the star pupil, at the top of every class.

I was also very righteous as you can see from my baptism picture. I always chose the right and stood for what I believe.

When the days of adolescence set in, I was always a trendsetter, one step ahead of the fashions.

I was Jonas before Jonas was cool. Well, actually, I was Jonas before Jonas was even born. See the resemblance? Where do you think they got their rockin' style?

As I matured, continually making all the right choices, I married well and raised four productive, talented, and equally gorgeous children.

So as you can see, with each new year, at every stage of my evolution, I just keep getting better and better.

(Please take all of this with a grain of salt.)

Happy Birthday to Me!
