Ian's 2nd Birthday

Ian had a WONDERFUL 2nd Birthday!!! Lots of family and friends came out to "MeMe and Poppy's" to help us celebrate. It seems like only moments ago I was holding him for the first time. It is my prayer that God will continue to show Daniel and I how to raise this precious little boy. I am so excited to see what 2 is going to bring us and yet I am a little sad because he is not a baby anymore. He will always be my baby though. Here is a poem I found that describes the way I am feeling right now...


It seems like only yesterday
that I held you in my arms
for the very first time
And now you walk beside me
holding my hand
and teaching my heart
to see the world
through the eyes of a child
Today all of nature
is your playground
and tommorow will dawn
with a rainbow of surprises
waiting to be discovered
by your innocent eyes
and open heart
It seems like only yesterday
that I welcomed you into my world
for the very first time
And now I can't imagine
what my world would ever be like
without you!
