Matthew-6 months

Here is what Mathew's mom says about him and the family:

-----------"Matthew is our first child who very much enjoys trips to the local zoo.

After considering many costume ideas for his first Halloween,--

we chose a rhino due to his fascination with the real animal.- -   

-We're a small family but feel we make a difference by recycling, -

--------------and we'll continue to educate ourselves and contribute in the future." -----
