To the right is my senior picture taken almost 20 years ago (technically 19 1/2 years ago). I thought I’d post that for your amusement. In my defense, it was the 80s and this certainly looks better than the pink and gray striped shirt that I had; worn proudly with my thin gray leather tie. So cool. I must say I never, ever gave into wearing parachute pants.
You know, 40 seems pretty young right now. It is hard to believe I have a teenage daughter, and a son who will be in 6th grade next year. Our baby of the family is 9! Also even though I have as much gray hair as my father I am thankful I have hair. I am also thankful for my beautiful wife and those three great kids. I am a blessed man.

Happy Birthday Shane! May God continue to bless you.
Happy Happy Birthday Shane!
Have a beautiful day.
Happy Birthday Buddy…I don't have kids but I just turned 39 and graduated High School in '88!!!
How time flies, huh.
God bless you and your family….
Happy birthday Shane!
I'm not too far away from you. I'll be 39 this year with a soon-to-be 16 year old stepson and a soon-to-be 14 month old son. We are both very blessed men.
Happy birthday. God's blessing to you this year.
Joe.
Happy birthday OLD man!
I can say that because I am ONLY turning 36 on Saturday! 
May God richly bless you in the coming year!
Ah, I fondly remember boys in pink with thin, leather ties.
Nice picture. Happy Birthday! May the Lord continue to richly bless you with His peace and joy and with an appreciation for all His gifts — especially the gifts that children are.
P.S. I'm 41, and I'm okay with it.
As a child of 1968, all I can say it, “Happy Birthday, whipper-snapper…now get off my lawn!”
Man, dont worry about the grey hair. Proverbs says it is a crown of Glory. When I was 18 you could see my balding already. I have not found a good bible verse about a bald head… maybe somewhere.
I am just a little behind you in the ol age… but 40… ugg!
Happy Birthday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Happy Birthday Shane!
I too am an 80's kid.
I'll be 39 on March 2nd.
Ahhh….The 80's
Happy B-Day!
Steve
Jill, thank you very much. May God bless you as well.
Why thanks Velvet!
It does go fast, thanks for stopping by!
Wow, Joe things are hopping at your house.
LOL… at least I'm not getting any AARP stuff yet.
I looked hot with that leather tie, I'm sure you would have swooned. Well, maybe not, I'm not Obama.
Getting off sir. I do respect my elders

Thanks Mel!
The 80s were awesome.
Yes, yes… the decade that brought us MC Hammer, Madonna, Van Halen, Def Leppard, and New Kids on the Block.
Pretty screwed up, LOL.
Have a great birthday. 40 is young, especially when you are pushing the other side of 50 like I am!
Happy Birthday! 40 gets younger and younger, doesn't it?
Happy Birthday, old man.
ohh boy… now I need some bears!!
Happy Birthday, Shane! The more that gets taken away, the more we appreciate what we have.
My God, My God!
You are a brave, bold man. If I showed the afro-ridden, half-baked cat who was in my Senior picture, “The Writing on the Wall” would have a demolition ball hurled at it with the quickness of the rapture. I just can't even bare it.
You, sir, have moxie!
Happy birthday, my hero.
Thanks Andy!
Yes it does!
Very true. I hope God doesn't give me a reason to have to appreciate my hair more
.
LOL!
Belated congrats! Aren't the 30s the best? Hope this year is the greatest ever for you…

Thanks Ellen, yes they've been my favorite decade of life thus far. I appreciate the birthday blessing!
