I still feel my heart strings tug when I see him these days, on the baseball field, out to dinner, at home doing his homework, at school on Grandparent's day... always doing his boy thing, too old to be taken care of, but every time we hug hello or goodbye, he is so sweet to let me say, "I love you" with my embrace, and my heart always feels his goodness.
I see him trying to be the best he can be, whether on the baseball field or doing his homework. That's good character, grandson, and every time I see you biting down intently on your tongue as you are throwing a baseball, I know you are in the zone, digging deep down inside and praying you succeed. That's a good quality to have, and that's what I think makes you the best of the best!
Thirteen, I can't believe you are already 13! Oh, how I have loved watching you grow so fine. Remember, Jesus will be your best friend for the asking and your best is always the ultimate gift you can give.
Happy Birthday, dear Joe. Can you hear me and Grandad singing?!

You all should know that Joe pitched in two games for his Giants this week. He won both, by scores of 17-4 and 17-1. In one he held the opponents hitless, which is a "no-hitter"! He had several big hits, too. Way to go, Joe! Love, Grandad.
message for Joe from Nana- - -
I am so sorry Joem when I started to acknowledge your birthday by email my keyboard would not make a
letter, not one, However I was looking at something and saw where someone had written your name and
gosh, I love your name, you sound so important like George Washington or George H. W. Bush
Listen to this Joseph Patton Regas.
I love it. And I love you little
grandson who is getting so big I
won't know you when I see you,
have a great year. Continue to
make Grandad proud, not to mention
your own Dad, Love, Nana
Happy birthday, Joe!!! We're looking forward to seeing you even taller at Grayton this year!!
