let them eat cake!

what a weekend of celebrations! Saturday, my baby sister graduated from college (which makes me feel incredibly old) and it was my birthday (which also makes me feel incredibly old). Today is V's birthday and we went to a friends birthday party. What a busy and fun-filled weekend!

I am now the mama of a THREE year old and I am *hoping* that is the end of the terrible twos although I am doubtful. He is such a handful lately, but so much fun too. He speaks his mind and really knows what he wants which is so fun and so much more work. This morning, he pulled a barstool up to M's high chair and they shared Cheerios. It was the cutest thing ever. He would hold them out to her and she took them and ate them and then he would have one. I just loved it! He then told me he wanted her head off and proceeded to try to take of off of her neck. I had to tell him to leave his sister's head on her body. There's a sentence I never thought I would say!

I love seeing him learn and grow. He is so inventive in his playing and it just amazes me how smart he is. Sometimes I can't believe that he is the same kid with all the "delays".

I look back over the last three years and can't believe how far we have come. I mean three years and one day ago I didn't know if I was having a son or a daughter. I didn't know how much I could really love someone. I didn't know how much happiness a little person could bring to me. All the things I didn't know.

I feel so blessed to get to be his mama and I look forward to celebrating many more birthdays with him. Happy birthday, Baby! I love you!
