This document appears to be a collection of photos and memories from Steven Anthony Shafer's childhood and teenage years. It references his birthdate in 1986, early childhood milestones like learning to walk and his first day of school, hobbies like playing with action figures and climbing trees, family vacations to places like the Grand Canyon, his high school activities like ROTC and prom, and his close relationship with his parents and friends. The tone is very fond and nostalgic as the author looks back on Steven's childhood and maturation into a young man.
