He is the first 'subsequent sibling' -- the first born after losing Levi to SIDS aged just 48 days.
He restored my confidence in being able to look after a baby and survived all my worries and poking and prodding whenever he slept.
He lodged himself firmly in his dads' heart, growing him into an awesome father. (in fact, he loves his dad so much that he's refused to open his presents till Dad can watch on Skype)
He grew into this fine young man.
He is bright and funny and loud and thoughtful and grubby and altogether wonderful.
Happy birthday, my boy.
What a fine young man you have there.....Happy Birthday darlin and enjoy opening your presents this evening

ReplyDeleteHe's a beautiful boy! Hope he had a top day.
ReplyDeleteSo sorry to hear of your first lil boy passing but so glad you have had 9 years with this beautiful young man - many more to come :-)
ReplyDeleteWow I can so relate to your love for your children. We lost our first little boy Aaron the day after he was born, I know that both of us still have the need to poke and check and worry over our kids. Happy Birthday to your gorgeous Mr 9...
