My Bubba has turned one. Where has the year gone? I've been telling people that this has been the fastest year of my life. I can't believe I have a one year old. It is definitely bittersweet. We're leaving the "infant" days behind and embracing the "toddler" days.
Going back through my blog, you're able to not only read about and see Kellen grow, but you're able to read about how we've grown as parents. Being a parent is not only a challenge, but it is so rewarding. Each day I'm greeted with the best smile in the world. The smile of my little boy. I see that smile first thing in the morning and each time I get home during the day. He is filled with so much joy, and watching him view the world is like reliving as if everything is new again. He has developed into his own person. His curiosity, his discovery, and his learning process is absolutely fascinating. He is so quick to pick up on new things.
I can't wait to see how Kellen will continue to grow. Will he love football & hockey like his dad, or will he love reading and being outdoors like his mom? Will his mild demeanor continue, or will he get swallowed up by the terrible twos? I am looking forward to what lies ahead of us as I know some of the best years are to come. Yet, I know I'll be missing my precious, tiny newborn little boy at times.
Happy birthday Sweet Boy. You have taught me so many things. I am thankful for every moment with you. Life is an amazing, crazy, and at times, unpredictable thing. You think of all the possibilities in life, and how everything had to all align for you to be my son. For that, I am so thankful. I love you.
