Upcoming Birthday







so hard to believe that in just 9 days (march 29), my miracle baby boy will be 3 years old. it seems like just yesterday that we called everyone to say that he was coming on that monday and everyone waited all day and night in the waiting room at the hospital for news of his arrival. and here we are getting ready to celebrate his 3rd birthday. hardly seems possible. this year, we are returning to the location of his 1st birthday party, (a local park) and the differences in how he is able to interact and play this time around are tremendous. we are always both celebrating and grieving his ever changing and constant development. in many ways, things are so much easier now, but as he grows and becomes more independent, he feels less like a baby and that i do not appreciate! i'm adding a couple of pictures to see how he has changed in the last 2 years. the first picture is caden on march 29, 2005, his exact 1 year birthday. the second picture was taken just a couple of weeks ago. there are not words to express fully just how much i love him and how lucky i feel to be his mommy.
