Celebrate

Today is a day of celebration in kerbyville, our little man is turning 9. I can hardly believe it 9!!?? He is thrilled and keeps wanting to speed up the clock. Today he was talking about how next year he will be 10. I want the clock to slow down and go back to the days of naps and sippy cups. I love his birthday though because I always tell him the story of the day he was born. He still likes to hear about it and I hope that I have a few more years before he tells me to quit. I always think of today as mother's day for me because that is when I became a mom. It wasn't some sunny day in May, it was a cold January morning when he came blazing into my life and changed it forever. I had no idea what I was in store for. There is nothing that I would change either, I adore him. He makes me laugh with his funny little sayings, he makes me crazy with his quirky little ways, and he makes my heart stop with those blue eyes. Oh how I wish life would slow down. He is well on his way to becoming an amazing person, it is just happening to fast for his mom. For today I am thankful for every moment that I have spent with him, and I pray that I have a million more. I love you little man!
