730 Days Ago

730 days ago God blessed us yet again, in a way that only He can.

730 days ago I wondered if it was possible to love another child as much as I loved my first. I quickly discovered it is.

730 days ago I first laid eyes on him, after eagerly awaiting his arrival, and fell head over heels in love, INSTANTLY!

730 days ago we became a family of four.

730 days ago I wondered how much our life would change with this new addition to our family, not knowing the changes would be many, but definitely for the better.

730 days ago my heart overflowed with happiness and joy and pride and hope and ached with uncertainty and concern, all at the same time.

730 days ago was one of the happiest days of my life.

730 days ago was the beginning of a wonderfully exciting adventure together.

Happy Second Birthday, sweet boy!!!


Sam, I cannot imagine our lives without you. You are an amazing gift from above, and we love you SO much!

PS: And yes, that is a faux hawk Sam's sporting on the above pictures. It's his pre-birthday party haircut. Isn't he the handsomest little man ever?

Thanks, ladies. He has definitely made our lives so much better. He had a wonderful day today. And what's funny is that his "real" party isn't until next Saturday. This party planning thing is exhausting.
