9 months already?!!

Yesterday, my bebe turned 9 months old!

I can't believe it has been 9 months already...

can't believe how much he learns every single day... (like how to use the remote!)

can't believe how much he has changed my universe (ALL for the better)...

can't believe just how much 1 Momma can LOVE her lil one (you can hear about it, you can receive it from your own Momma, but once You are the Momma loving her own child, you won't fully grasp what it means).

I can't get over how each smile, laugh and giggle melt my heart. (even when its source is gas)

I can't get over how much I want to protect him from any hurts. ever. (even if I know hurts and trials make us grow... can I do it for him??)

can't imagine me without him... this was meant to be.

can't believe 9 months ago he was literally my 'tiny peanut' and now he's my 'lil big man'... (5.4 lbs to 23+ lbs in 9 months!)

can't imagine how I could possibly be any more proud of him, but it happens, each and every day.

I am grateful from the inner most of my being to the ends of my hair, and tips of my toes. Let me never take 1 second of this gift for granted!!

Dear Hilary & JoAnne,

We have known each other for years, and 'seen' each other through many, many times. And even now, with 3,000 miles separating us, we can see each others' lives and more adventures, via this wonderful tool known as 'Blogger'.

So, I vow, here and now, to write in here at least once every 3 or 4 months (ha, ha!) and to try not to be too long winded, or too vague. ;)

With Love, and gratitude,

kirsten
