Singing

I have a singer!!

My little guy has recently started to sing.

Sometimes it's a real song and sometimes it's just made up songs.

It is so cute to hear his little boy voice singing.

I'm trying to get some video of him singing but it hard!!

Flowers

Yesterday just before suppertime, my son and husband were out in the backyard.

After a while my little guy came to the door and told me to close my eyes, that he had a surprise for me.

So, I played along and closed my eyes.

Then he said, "open your eyes" and he was holding these flowers.

In his little boy voice he said, " I picked these flowers for you from the back yard mommy".

It was so sweet.

Then he went back to playing outside!!

Four years ago on a Thursday, I gave birth to my little boy. He's no longer a baby, and I can't call him a toddler anymore either. He's growing so quickly it seems.
This is a picture of his cake. He likes dinosaurs lately so we got him a cake decorated with dinosaurs. He liked it and he blew the candle out on the first try.
He brings a great amount of joy into my life. I am thankful to have him in my life.
We waited almost 10 years for our son. We had actually given up on ever having more children. He is a blessing to us and our whole family.

1 Samuel 1:20
So it came to pass in the process of time that Hannah conceived and bore a son, and called his name Samuel, saying, “Because I have asked for him from the LORD.”

Luke 1:13-14
But the angel said to him, “Do not be afraid, Zacharias, for your prayer is heard; and your wife Elizabeth will bear you a son, and you shall call his name John.
14 And you will have joy and gladness, and many will rejoice at his birth.

Letter box

This is a letter box I received at a shower I had for my son. It is by far the neatest gift I have received. I never had one of these for my daughter though.
So, each year my husband and I sit down and we each write a two pages in the booklet provided. I cry every year when I write this letter knowing my son will read them when he is 21. Mostly I cry because my son was such a wonderful, beautiful surprise to us all. I am thankful and grateful to have my son. He's not a baby anymore. He's growing too quickly!!

1 Samuel 1:20
20 So it came to pass in the process of time that Hannah conceived and bore a son, and called his name Samuel, saying, “Because I have asked for him from the LORD.”

1 Samuel 1:27
27 For this child I prayed, and the LORD has granted me my petition which I asked of Him.
