My baby turns 4!

I can't believe my baby turned 4 yesterday! How does time pass so quickly??? I waited so long to have him and now he's 4! I had wanted a baby years earlier, but the time wasn't right. We got married when Jason was still in college, so I waited. After he graduated, we moved and we both started new jobs, so I waited. Jason wasn't ready, so I waited. Finally, after we had been married for 8 years, we started trying to have a baby. That wasn't easy for us either though. Getting pregnant was never a problem for me. It was keeping the pregnancies that proved a challenge. I lost our first baby at 8 weeks. I got pregnant again as soon as the doctor said it was ok. We found out that I was carrying triplets! Crazy! I was not on fertility drugs. It was natural! But, the excitement didn't last long before I miscarried again. But then came C! With a little help from chemistry, I finally had my baby boy! What a happy day!!! Now, 4 years have passed and I have no idea where the time went? He's such a big boy! Not my little baby anymore. But, last night, as I was on my way to bed, I peeked in his room as I always do, and saw that he was awake and laying with his head at the foot of his bed. It was beginning to storm and he told me that he was afraid (which is very unusual because he's never afraid of storms). I asked him if he wanted Mommy to lay with him for a while and, of course, he did. So I crawled in bed with my baby and we both fell asleep. He may not be my little baby anymore, but he's still Mommy's boy! I love you, C!

  1. I can't believe how different he looks with that haircut!!! Wow...four years already...doesn't seem possible does it? I remember sitting at the hospital with you and coming back out later after he'd made his appearance.
