Happy Birthday Sweet Boy!!!


Wow, 7 years old. I have to admit this one hurts a little. Last week he lost his top right tooth and I just started to cry. He's growing up so fast. People tell you that, that is goes so fast so enjoy it. But with all that goes on in raising children it's hard to savor every moment...then you look up and 7 years has gone by.

Most everyone who knows me is aware of the fact that I didn't ever want kids. Ha! On May 3, 2002 God showed me what "He" wanted for me. He's so much smarter than I am. These last 7 years have been the most exhilerating, difficult, emotional, exciting....I could go on forever....years of my life. I'm so glad I didn't miss out on him!

Today I am so thankful for Taylor. He is the person who showed me who I am, and made me want to be better. He makes me love life and he shows me how to find joy in everything, everyday. He, like his precious daddy, is so kind and thoughtful and always wants me to be happy (even when I don't deserve to be). I wish I could be more like him.
He makes our family the crazy, silly family that we are. We are all blessed to have him!



Happy birthday my precious little boy...I love you so much!!!
Thanks be to God for his undescribable gift. II Corinthians 9:15

Sweet post, Ape! I can't believe he is 7 years old. I do remember the shock when you found out you were pregnant, but I am so proud of the mother you have become. God knew what he was doing (of course)!
