Mixed Emotions...

As I was sitting at our computer looking through our pictures, it hit me like a ton of bricks that this is the last month that Noah will be 1. He turns 2 in less than a month, and for some reason I can't find just the right word to describe how it makes me feel. Joyful, saddened, teary, scared, proud and yet all of the above fit perfectly. My Mom always said that I would never understand a Mother's love until I had my own children. She said that I would hurt when they hurt and I would rejoice when they rejoiced and never in my life has she been so right. I can only hope and pray that I can be the kind of Mom to Noah that mine was and still is to me.

I can't believe Noah is allready 2 years old, time goes by so fast. He is such a cutie!

BTW Mandy is doing well, she will be 37 weeks this Friday. She had Mckai at 38 weeks so she is crossing her fingers that Mckenzie will be the same!

Amazing how these little ones evoke such love and emotion, huh? =) I have no doubt that you are as awesome a mother as your incredible mom! Your love for sweet Noah is very apparent!

I so know how you feel. It is so hard when your baby grows up and isn't a baby anymore. Noah is growing up fast and getting so cute!
