Aaron Cole Isaacson was born the 24th of June, 2002, in Burns, Oregon. He is #4 in a family of 6 kids and he loves to fish, hunt, hike, camp, wrestle, ride his bike, play with family and friends, reading, drawing, and riding horses, whittling with his knife, and he is a fantastic cub scout, having just earned his Wolf award. He is a true BOY of boys.
His kindergarten teacher called him Kind Cole, and that fits him perfectly. He is a very loving boy who gives great hugs and likes to be held and talk. But Cole will stand his ground and fight. He loves the aggressive competition of wrestling and "took out" the bully at school that continued to pick on his friend Bryce; Cole is VERY loyal.
Most wouldn't know he likes to talk because he can be quite shy around some people. He has a wickedly quick sense of humor and loves to banter with Uncle Seth. He is the only 8 year old that I know that consistently puts himself to bed before 9 PM so he gets the rest he needs for school. He brushes his teeth, says his prayers, and heads to bed consistently every night without being told. He is a very dedicated student and is a pretty good piano player that practices without being told. When he makes up his mind to do something, he does it..................and he does it well. He has a great inner drive to succeed and do his best. Basically he doesn't take after his dad in the "self manager" area, exceeding my abilities in leaps and bounds, but he definitely has my love for the outdoors, and his ability to tease is on track with mine.
Friday was his 9th birthday and I took him fishing for some daddy and son time. I've included a few photos here, but for the full story and videos, you can visit my blog www.meadsflat.blogspot.com. It is one of the blogs listed on this page.
Love to all.
Cole's biggest fish of the day. A nice rainbow caught on a 6/7 weight fly rod and a brown wooly bugger his dad tied.
This is me rowing the boat!

Great! I think, Dear Jason, that Cole dodged a HUGE bullet (we're talking Howitzer, here!) when he was born looking like his Mama. Had he looked like you (the picture of you in this post, as example) he'd have had to endure years of physical, surgical, and emotional therapy. He's a great-looking and good boy. You are a wonderful Dad. Keep it up!
