birthday boy...

this past weekend, while i was out 'junking' my baby had a birthday.

can you believe the nerve of him?

i know it sounds cliche but where did 11 years go?

i can still remember the way he felt when i kissed his head for the first time. he was 60 seconds old.

i remember thinking that all i wanted in life was to watch him grow up happy and be a man of God.

i believe he's well on his way.now i wish i could have bottled him that day.

cuz, he won't stop growing.

nor would i wish that for him.

that being said, i love this age!

i love that he is turning into a wonderful, independent little adult.

sam never ceases to amaze me.

he is truly the wittiest child i've ever met. a funny, funny little man.

and sweet. he is the first one to ask how i'm doing. he is always acutely aware of other peoples feelings.

i love that quality about him!

if you don't know sam, i wish you did.

i you DO know him, i bet you're glad you do.

happy 11th birthday son.

i'm so proud to be your mama.
