My How Time Flies ~ Bubba turns 9
Posted by: | CommentsOh my gracious! My little Bubba, okay not so little, turned 9 today! I have to admit that I am feeling a bit old…not too old, mind you, but definately older!
Happy Birthday to my wonderful, strong, smart and lively young man….stay little for as long as you can, please? I love you and I pray that God will continue to bless you and be an important part of who you are.
Here are a few snap shots of the small birthday celebration we had to ring in one more year.
Nine candles…does he have enough breath?
It appears that he does! 
Tradition in my house, birthday person gets the first bite, no matter who you are!
It is hard to believe that I have been blessed with such a wonderful boy such as Bubba. God sure knew that I needed a strong, yet sensitive young man in my life. A young man that will continue to grow in the Lord and become a better man because of it.
I blinked and the years flew by. I try not to dwell on the “what ifs” or “what should haves”, because for me there are never enough memories that could have been created along the way.
I strive to remember that each day is a blessing, regardless if it was a birth day or not. So many times we get caught up in “how we should be” instead of relishing “how sweet it has been”…
A brief reminder that you must make the most of the days we are given, because we are not even guaranteed tomorrow.
Talk soon…
Bubbaloo’s 2nd Birthday
Posted by: | CommentsMy littlest one, Bubbaloo, turned 2 at the end of December and he was so excited to get his birthday cake and presents!
I wanted to share a few photos with you.
Singing "Happy Birthday"
Trying to blow out the candles with daddy
"Cake, please, Daddy!"
"CARS!!!!"
I cannot believe that so much time has passed, it seems like just yesterday that I was sooooo ready to deliver this precious gift. Now I am in awe of all he has accomplished in his young life. He talks with the best of them, argues like a pro and is in the process of mastering the potty!
I believe that you must stop and take the time to notice all of the smallest of accomplishments as well.
The fact that he recently learned the art of story telling. “I got up, and then, I went to the potty, and then, I got a lollipop, and then, I talk to daddy, and then, and then, and then…..”
Or that he is finally able to eat a cup of yogurt without most of it being all of him!
And lastly, that he loves to say his prayers every night before sleep. That is a great thing!
I thank God everyday for blessing me with a wonderful little boy that is just one of the highlights of my day!
Talk soon….
