BIG 13! Eddies Birthday

Hard to believe we have a teenager. Time is bound to fly from here... so I am told. I ache inside everyday as I see my sweet children growing taller everyday. If it were up to me I'd keep them little and yummy forever. With that said, I have SO enjoyed every stage of being a mother. It is magic. Being a mother to lots of boys (soon to be 5 total) bestows it's own magic. They are my sweet boys. They are becoming the most incredible human beings and I revile in watching them bloom into their own beautiful beings. Loving them and nurturing them through this journey of adolescence in hard, challenging and strategic work but OH so rewarding and a wonderful joy to be apart of the magic.

This one child in particular has his own special spot in my heart. He was the 1st. He was the one that revealed to me the mother inside. He brought out the intensely passionate mother that I had no idea was hiding beneath her skin. He has taught me the most about who I am, why I am here and what my purpose is here in the wonderful thing called life. He brought that calling with him the moment he quivered in my womb. His first breath captivated me and assured me as to what it is that I am here for, being a mother is one of those fantastic things and I am so eternally grateful for the privileged of being his mother. He will alwasy be my baby no matter how tall he grows.

This boy, young man is tender, sensitive, sweet, gentle, eager to please, a peace maker and happy all the time. He is such a pure pleasure to have around and we love him crazy like.

Yep... Dr. Dre's got replaced.
