Birthdays!

Well I am the proud parent of an 11 year old now folks! My eldest son just turned 11 yesterday, on ground hog's day. It was a fun weekend celebrating with a birthday/super bowl party (GO STEELERS!) Boy kids grow up fast. I never thought that was true until not too long ago.
You know, when you are in the midst of crying kids, temper tantrums, bathroom accidents, etc. you think it is going to last forever. Then all of a sudden those days are years behind you and you actually miss them in a way! I do. I miss the dirty diapers, the words that you can't understand,
the playing with toddler toys, etc. But you know, these days are good in their own way too.
We have such awesome, in depth conversations about life, God, relationships, etc. The boys are creating their own identities and that is a fun process to watch. I wouldn't trade parenting for anything else in the whole world. Happy Birthday Jeremy! Mommy loves you. :)
