Jack Turns One!

A whole year...where did it go? It honestly feels like I brought my sweet boy home just yesterday. What a blessing he has been to our lives. I couldn't ask for a more precious, perfect child. It is amazing how someone so small can change your life for the better, and make you strive to be a better person each and everyday. As his Big Day was approaching I found myself thinking back to last year, and the anticipation, excitement, worry and fear that filled me, and then the day finally came, and I found out just why it is called labor, and then the long awaited moment of his birth and the instant love that overcame me. I was ever changed the moment I laid eyes on my son. So to my sweet baby boy, Thank you! Thank you for making me a better person, for helping me to slow down and appreciate every second of life, for helping me to realize what truly is important, and for helping me to once again embrace that innocent sense of wonder that you so gracefully share. You are perfect in every way and I know the Lord has a special plan for your life. Always remember, even when you no longer want mommy to rock and cuddle you that I will always love you...all the way to the "moon and back".


There was a whole couch of presents from mommy and daddy when I woke up...I love my puzzles!


Can I really do this??
Squishy!
