Since the site was down, I posted this over at Babalu on Brandon's 4th Birthday, January 11th. I still can't believe he's 4...
My little boy turns 4 today.
I remember the first time we saw him. That is the moment when reality hit: We've created a little being and he's growing inside me at this very moment. There is no greater, scarier feeling. Except for when that little being is born. That feeling intensifies ten-fold.
It's amazing to watch this beautiful little boy grown from a tiny little infant to the independent little boy he has become. In the blink of an eye, our little man turned One, then Two, then Three. Today he's Four. Four! What happened to my baby?!
I can do nothing to stop the time from passing, but I know that I can cherish every moment he is learning, growing, loving, caring, playing, exploring, and smiling.
Happy birthday my gordo. I love you! I hope that someday you can experience as a parent the magic, wonder, excitement and endless unconditional love you have brought to our lives.
While we try to teach our children all about life,
Our children teach us what life is all about.
