My (Big) Little Man

There is not one ounce, not one cell, of me that can believe my Baby Boy is ten months old today!  He is walking everywhere, trying his hardest to run on those stubby, fat legs…doesn’t even crawl anymore…boo hoo, sob sob.  He’s got five, precious, little, rice lookin’ teeth and to accompany those – the most infectiously funny grin you ever saw!  He’s developing this crazy, huge personality…so calm and happy UNLESS he doesn’t get his way. In that instance, well, let’s just say – he’s discovered all the perks a cute, fiery, little temper will get him! 

He is so sunny, so funny, such a joy, such a boy, so happy, cept when he’s crappy…OK, I’ll stop…I just love, love, love him!  A big shout out to my Father in heaven for lending me such a gift…Thanks God, I’ll do my best not to disappoint You. 

Now, I must go…I have a fat, ten month old neck to snuggle into and sniff. I have some juicy, ten month old lips and cheeks to kiss, kiss, kiss. I have to be silly enough to get a precious, ten month old belly laugh out of one of the most beautiful, ten month old smiles I have ever seen.

I am so grateful.
