I hear crying and walk upstairs.
Luke is in his crib. I go in and give him a bottle.
He is laying there in my arms and it's the wee hours of the morning.
I am humming to him softly.... Christmas music.
As I sit there, it dawns on me... "It's his birthday"
So I begin to hum Happy Birthday and I go back in my mind.
One year ago today I was anxious with anticipation of the birth of my second son.
I was scared. Terrified, that I hadn't waited long enough to have him "naturally"
(thankfully my MD later told me he had never "engaged" in my pelvis and that my body doesn't "like" having kids the old fashioned way)
I was also over the moon with excitement. He arrived at 11:46 am one year ago today.
Sheer joy is all I can think of when I want to find words to describe this past year.
His beautiful blue eyes, The cute toothy grin.
He is so easy going and sweet. Just a wonder to be around. I cannot wait to see what the next year holds for you my sweet little boy.
Happy Birthday Luke Joseph! I love you so much and thank Him everyday for bringing you into our lives. You completed our little family and we are so lucky you are here.
*** I intend to post pictures but at the moment I cannot locate any fast enough.
