Today is January 7, 2009. My baby boy is 1 today. I took off work today so I could spend the day with him. I woke him up singing "Happy Birthday" and our song, we always sing to him " You are my Sunshine". I cried 1st thing this morning, anybody who knows knows that I don't cry much. I called the Cross radio station to announce his birthday. He went to work with mommy for 15 minutes where everyone thought he was just beautiful and "juicy". I ordered his birthday cake for Sunday (it is, of course, a monkey cake, which also comes with his own personal cake. We went to Toys R Us and got his birthday present, Cozy Coute Car. We went to the mall. We came home and went to church. The church sang Happy Birthday to him. He could not believe all the people singing to him. I can not believe a year ago he was coming into this world as a tiny 6 pound baby. I was counting his toes and looking into his beautiful blue eyes. All I could do is hold him, love him, cuddle and kiss him. Nothing is changed except for now he is bigger and is on the move more. I posed the question to my husband and myself the other day, it was "Why were we not like this with the other two?" The answer was it was because we were so busy with two little ones and then Jeremy had so many problems that his first year, we held our breath wondering if he was going to be ok. And yes, now he is our str0ng willed child. I never would have dreamed that I would have 3 boys. They are each special to me in their own way. Christian is my sweet, very smart child. Jeremy is my strong willed child. Aiden has a little of each with his own personality if that makes sense. It is amazing how God chooses to bless us.
