Happy 1st Birthday!

Happy birthday to my awesome little man! Today started much like it did one year ago with a screaming baby who only wanted to eat and snuggle up next to his nice warm mommy. The day outside is much like it was one year ago as well; gray, overcast, windy, and cold.

It’s hard to believe that it’s been a year already. So much has happened, but at the same time it has gone by so fast. I asked Troy this morning how we did as parents over the last year. Does he want to keep us for another year or trade us in? He simply looked at me and smiled, then he wrapped his little arms around my neck and hugged me with all his considerable strength. I guess that means we’re good for another year.

I am so proud of all that Troy has learned and accomplished so far. I have loved watching him experience the world. I couldn’t ask for a better son.

“and behold, a voice out of the heavens said, “This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well-pleased.””

Matthew 3:17 NASB

And Troy is my beloved son in whom I am well-pleased. I look forward to all of the adventures that we’ll go on in the next year! Happy birthday, munchkin. I love you more than you’ll ever know and definitely more than words alone could ever express.
