As the youngest of three brothers I have long given up on the idea of having candles on my birthday cake. With that and the sanity of the South Haven Fired Department in mind the Nelson family celebrated Doug's 34th birthday this afternoon. It was neat to walk down the hallway of his house and see pictures of him back in high school, especially the ones of him on the mound for the Portage Indians baseball team. Now Nathan wears that uniform, the kids are getting bigger everyday, and we're celebrating Doug's 34th. It's weird getting older. In my mind I'm smarter than I was then, but there's a very large part of me that still feels like I'm 20 years old. When I see a picture of myself or catch a glimpse in the mirror I'm reminded otherwise, but I'm happy with what I've done with my time and most of the decisions that I've made. I look at my family, my wife Kari, and my children...I wouldn't change a thing. Happy birthday Dougie, we love you!
