Will they ever admit to the Botox, et al?

Middle-San turns 11
Middle son, I am thinking all about you on your birthday today. I feel you don’t always get the day-to-day attention like your older and younger brothers. Here’s what gets my attention:
· When I yell for from the kitchen that I need help from someone getting dinner ready you are usually the first one to appear.
· Your appetite for reading has practically surpassed mine.
· You get up for school at 6:20 a.m. everyday using your own clock radio.
· You start your homework each day without being asked.
· You are a good friend (and you have no idea that kids at school argue over who is in your circle of friends).
· You have a remarkable maturity.
· You’ll comment that I look younger than someone on TV or in the paper.
· You aren’t afraid to be different.
· You are photogenic (I need to quit my job and start/manage for you a skater dude modeling career).
· You are so easy going.
I can’t wait to celebrate your 11th birthday tonight with our family! I love our one-on-one dates so let’s have one soon. I love that you and I are the only roller skaters in the family. I love that you will hold my hand for one trip around the rink and that you told me you would still do that even though you are 11 (as long as it's only you and I at the roller rink).
