Happy Birthday Bluie!

August 15, 2008 - 6:05 am 6 Comments

Today is my oldest son’s 6th birthday!

He’s been full of energy since I was pregnant with him. Out of all 3 of my children, he was the wiggliest and wildest during pregnancy. He’d kick and squirm and jump all day long. As a baby in the bouncer he’d kick kick kick. He walked before he crawled, he found a way out of his crib by 10 months old. At his 1st birthday party, he was jumping off of the diving board, and riding a tricycle down the road. At 2 he’d run laps around the living room, while we’d count…25…26…27….seriously…. He has more energy than all of us combined, and with that energy comes optimism and a love for life.

I love him more than I can express or describe. He was seriously a changing point in my life- a huge gift. I’ve learned so much through him, and with him. I feel so fortunate to have him in my life. He’s amazing.

So, Happy Birthday to our wonderful Blue!

    Enjoy your day together. And thanks for sharing more about him with us Kristin. What a precious, amazing boy. Great pictures with this post, too. Such wonderful memories, huh. Time really flies doesn’t it?! It’s great to get to live life full of those incredible moments, but aches a little looking back. You are such a sweet, loving, creative mom. Blue is blessed.
