Lachlan turned 8 yesterday...yes 8. I really can hardly believe that 8 years ago today I was holding my 1 day old first baby boy. I had no idea about being a mother-I only knew it was what I wanted so badly for so long. Now, he is not quite so cuddly and I have learned so much. Sometimes I think back to the special time when it was just him and wish I could go back and enjoy it some more. Now I have awesome conversations with him and am amazed at what a respectful, wonderful boy he is! 2 boys have been born since then one 2 years ago today...
I can hardly believe that McKenon is 2! 2 precious years ago my labor was just beginning and went very quickly! My beautiful boy was born here at home and it is such a special memory for me! He's also not quite so cuddly anymore but I can still rock him before bed and he lays his head on my shoulder and we sing. It's precious time that I know will pass quickly, which almost brings tears to my eyes. Soon he'll be 8, Cohen will be 11 and Lachlan will be 14!
So all in all I am so very thankful for my 3 boys. They have taught me to be a mommy and I wouldn't take one moment away that I've had staying home and raising them.
Happy Birthday boys!

Oh dear. we can hardly believe it either! When we first started coming to your house every Wed., Lachlin was 2~ and NOW--wow..you have a wonderful family. We love all 5 of you. And you are a great "Mom"..I think they are copying big brother. You guys are awesome parents. We're so glad you're in our neighborhood!
Megan,
Yes, cherish the days -they do go quickly. The ages of mine are the ages yours will be in six years - 14, 11, 8. Where has the time gone? It goes so fast that it becomes a blur. Happy Birthday, Boys!! You are PRECIOUS!! Love, M~
