Oh, my baby; my sweet, sweet baby Ashton.
There will never be enough words to ever describe the kind of kid you are.
Ashton Burris is what we named you as you entered this world on March 15, 2015.
You were so chunky, and boy did you love to eat.
You began to smile so early on and every day after, your smile grew bigger and bigger.
He could always light a room with that smile (the life of the party).
Ashton loved going to school, Rios Elementary (my big 3rd grader). He would come home every single day and tell us at least 10 stories, and let me not forget how excited he was to be called the RIZZ KING (meaning all the ladies loved him).
How could you not love Ashton?
He’s the sweetest, most loving, and helpful child I have ever come in contact with.
He loves his brothers and sister with all his heart; he made sure to help with little ones and they adore him. Let’s not forget how he looked up to his big brothers Amare and Aiden; he copied everything they did!!!!
He loved Skateboarding.
He loved Soccer.
My everyday riding partner.
He loved sweets (my mom would call him the candy man and sing this song to him, while he’d be laughing).
Straight momma’s boy!
He made such an impact on the world with the love he showed!
Smart, loving, helpful, caring, and consoling. He was everything!
