Sweet J, my little guy, turns two today. He doesn’t really get it yet but I sure do. I say it all the time but I can’t believe how fast time goes. Last night, MJ and I spent time remembering how his birth played out – the labor that started before dinner, putting our first born to bed for the last time as an only child, calling our friend in the middle of the night to come to the house so we could get the hospital, me crying that I didn’t actually want to do this birthing thing again and MJ pointing out that it was too late for that. :) It really was a peaceful, easy, straight forward birth. And when I got to hold him…the world has never been the same.
We are celebrating him tonight with cake and gifts. Even though we keep talking about it, I’m pretty sure he’ll be surprised. Haha! Happy birthday, my sweet boy.

- Very talented photography/photo styling husband and wife team. Really impressed with their work.
Things for which I am thankful:
- My sweet baby boy. His deep brown eyes. His messy, curly hair. His giggle. The way he says words and the way he sings to songs on the radio! The way he asks me to chase him so he can run and scream his lungs out. His expressive face and eyes. The way he still snuggles me, even though it usually includes playing with my hair which drives me nuts!! I am thankful he is mine, ours. I am thankful I am his momma. And I am so very thankful I get to watch him grow.
Have a great weekend! See you back here on Monday.
Take care.
