Opening presents!
Wow. It's hard to believe that Michael is one year old today! Honestly, when I analyze it, it seems like the first 6 months went by slowly... but the last 6 months have zoomed right by. I look at Michael and don't see a "baby" any more. I know EVERYONE says it, but time flies too fast! I think every day of my life, "Cherish each and every moment with them".
This month has been somewhat difficult because I have had to go back to work and work longer hours. I miss my boys. I want to see every milestone. I want to see their funny personalities. I want to be their everything. But I also know, in my heart, that it isn't possible. I try to have gratitude for everything lately. This week, I had the experience of meeting a 5 year old boy, who is in a wheelchair, and can't walk. He is paralyzed from the chest down and although he is cognitively "normal", he has so many physical needs, that it brought tears to my eyes for the appreciation that I have for having such happy, healthy, active boys. I love them so much.
We had a birthday party for Michael last weekend with all the close family members. We had delicious sandwiches, snacks, and yummy cupcakes! It was awesome.
