Two years ago today I met a tiny creature with big blue eyes and a penchant for taking long naps. I had no idea that two years later, my little fuzzy peach would morph into a lanky toddler with big blue eyes and a penchant for Nutri-Grain bars and Curious George. Logically, I knew he would grow up but it's hard to imagine your newborn as anything but a newborn.
There is no doubt that you love your child when he or she is first born. Heck, bond of love begins to blossom as your sweet num-num grows in your womb. As the months melt by and you develop a deeper relationship with your child, your love only intensifies. You think that you couldn't possibly love someone anymore, and then you blink, a year goes by, and you find yourself thinking "and I thought I loved him sooo much back then!". (Thanks, Brad Paisley, for ripping off my idea and making a million dollars. I'll be on the lookout for my royalty check...)
We're having a little birthday party at school this afternoon. G-Ma and G-Daddy are joining us there. Then we'll head home for a spaghetti dinner (one of Rowan's favorites) and presents. Jeremy's parents are going to try to join us from Wise via Skype, provided there are no technical hitches.
Jeremy's shooting some video at the school party and I've got my camera. We should have a couple of good photos to share. I'll let you know when my slacker self gets them posted.
I'll post Rowan's monthly highlights later - maybe this weekend if I get my act together.
Happy birthday wishes to my sweet boy!
