five

Tomorrow morning I will make up to being the mother of a five year old.  I truly feel like I don't know where the time has gone?  Every one of the kids' birthdays seems unbelievable but there is something BIG about turning 5.

A lot has changed in five years.  Different house. Three kids.  Same pets ;-) And a slew of other things.

Five years ago at this time, we were checked into the hospital, hooked up to machines and wondering what tomorrow would bring.  What time would precious boy make his arrival? How would labor go?  What would he LOOK like?  Would we make good parents?

It is overwhelming to think about what a miracle and blessing children are and I am so grateful that God entrusted Matt and I to be Zachary's parents.  I love my crazy, strong-willed, sports loving, competitive, funny, loving and sweet little boy.  I can never thank him enough for making me a mommy.  He loves his brothers and even though they may fight sometimes, at the end of the day they are always on the same team.  I pray it always stays that way.

We love you so much, Zachary and can't wait to see what God has in store for you!
