Happy Birthday Parker!

FILED IN: Personal

Happy 1st birthday to the most amazing, loving and fun little boy! Parker, I cant believe it was one year ago today that your dad and I welcomed you into this world. That day truly was the best of my life. From the moment I first saw you, I knew my life would never be the same. You, one very small little person, have captured my heart so completely. The love a mother has for her child is truly something words cannot express, so anything I try to write here cannot begin to be adequate to describe how much I love you and how much you change my world for the better. You continue to surprise and delight your dad and me every day. You are more than we ever could have imagined in every way, and I don’t think I could ever express to God how grateful/blessed/overwhelmed/amazed I am that he gave me YOU as my son. I will protect you, encourage you and love you all the days of your life.

I love being your mom.

Happy Birthday Parker!

A Sock Monkey Party for our favorite little guy.

David built this Puppet Theater, best Dad EVER!  I think it came out pretty stinkin’ cute.
