I cannot believe how fast time goes. It seems to me it was just the other day that I held Jacob in my arms in the hospital after having a very complicated labor. The joy of being able to hold my baby is indescribable!
Today, September 30, 2008 he became an official "teenager". I am not going to lie, while I'm happy God has granted my son another year of life and good health, I was sad to see that my baby is no longer a baby. A new phase for him and for us, his parents. We have been blessed with such a wonderful son. He is so kind, considerate, lovable and wonderfully respectful.
It's tradition, the day of your birthday you get your favorite meal cooked and a homemade cake! (His brother Andrew made the cake). Just the four of us celebrating each other's birthday.
I picked up Jacob at school. I surprised him and picked him up at 12:30 (1/2 day). I took him shopping for his official party on Saturday and he picked out his birthday present. I wasn't feeling good at all today, but I put my best foot foward for my baby!
I Thank God everyday for my boys; they are the best gift that God has given me. Children are a blessing from the Lord!
