Yes, this was one of the most significant days I will ever experience.On this day, my first born child was born.Life changed.Evan took his sweet time joining the world outside the womb.But I will never forget the moment he arrived.I was so certain he would be a girl.I was certain I had to have a girl.Quite frankly, I think I doubted my ability to relate and thus parent a male child.So imagine my suprise when the Dr's announced our "son's" arrival.I think my heart truly stopped for one beat.Yet, the minute Evan was placed in my arms, he was home.All doubt was erased and a new love was born.
Fast forward four years, one day and here we are. It is incredible to think that I am a mother to a FOUR YEAR OLD. How did this happen? It seems like just yesterday he was taking his first wobbly steps.Now he is becoming more independent, struggling to make his own decisions.I am so proud to be this boy's Mommy.I feel so blessed to be able to share this journey with him.Although, I am also quickly reminded that with every birthday my little guy has, I am on the receiving end of another grey hair;)
This year, we had two birthday celebrations. One on the Island with Grandma and Grandpa M. That was nice and Evan had fun.Today we had a little party for the Wakelin side. A late lunch buffet, cake, a pinata and some presents.Plus, some one-on-one time w/ Justin playing w/ their gameboys.Four year old F-U-N.
