Wow, where has the time gone??? Monday Hunter celebrated his 6th birthday! He had a wonderful day...he went to lunch with his buddy Josiah; he ate at Buffalo Wild Wings for dinner; we had chocolate cake with chocolate icing; and of course he got presents! Some of his favorite gifts were the big Gravedigger monster truck (that makes way too much noise!) and the Mack play set from the movie Cars. Brian and I splurged this year and bought Hunter a bike. He seemed so unimpressed by the bike at first. But now he asks to sit on it all the time.
So, I don't know about anyone else, but I vividly remember 6 years ago...the long labor, the 3+ hours of pushing, the 9 lb 15 oz bundle of pure joy! It is amazing how many details of that day I remember (I even remember where we ate the afternoon before for lunch) but I can't remember many of the things I need to do each and every day. I remember how how much our lives changed February 25, 2002, but I wouldn't trade that for anything.
Hunter has brought so much love, joy and encouragement into our lives. He is such an amazing young man...I can only imagine the man he will grow to become.
He just came in to my room to get me to help him peel a banana for him. As he was leaving he said, "Really soon I will be old enough to get married." What??? He's six and already talking about marriage! Oh, how he makes me smile!
