I suspect that I'm not the only one who likes to peruse old family photos at this time of year.
As my baby is about to turn 5 tomorrow...YES 5!!!...I've been enjoying these shots of my favorite little guy.
Happy birthday Adam!
You are so special and you steal my heart with the sweet and funny things you say, your imagination and creativity, your boyish intensity and energy, and your fierce love. I see so many of the qualities I love about Daddy in you, even though everyone says your looks resemble me. I am thankful you still like to snuggle up on my lap. I know those days are probably numbered.
One of my most precious Christmas memories is bringing you home from the hospital on the 23rd. There is nothing quite like holding a newborn in your arms when the world is dark, the household sleeping, and humming Silent Night.
Now you are becoming an independent Preschooler and outgrowing your clothes at an astonishing rate. At times I want you to slow down, but mostly I am thrilled to see you mature and experience new things.
Love you buddy!

Oh these pictures are almost bittersweet, aren't they?? Anthony and Lori have a slidescreen constantly going when the computer is not in use, and sometimes the precious pictures of Austin when he was a baby and toddler just make our hearts ache for how quickly he grew up.
Happy Birthday, Adam!
