Today I am planning Owen's 7th birthday party! While this is always a very exciting time of year for both of us, this year has been bittersweet. Seven seems so much older then six to me. It's hit me these last few weeks just how big he is getting, and worse just how fast it's happening. I think back to when he was a just a baby. I remember those chubby rolls that consumed his little body. I try to remember all the little perfect things about him, the things that I thought surely I would never forget. Well, guess what, seven years and two kids later, I have. That alone makes me sad. I'm so thankful for pictures and baby books.
The last seven years I've been able to witness that chubby baby grow into a brilliant, handsome, little boy. I'm so proud to be his mama, and feel honored that God chose me to raise him.
If anything, these past seven years has shown me just how fast the next seven will fly by, which is why I better quit typing and get back to Jameson and Ava. I want to take in every moment of their precious lives. I know I'll be planning their seventh birthday parties before I know it!
