On This Day...

Two years ago, our beautiful, amazingly strong baby boy was born, and our lives were forever changed.  I can hardly believe two years have already gone by.  After his birth, it felt like our time in the neonatal intensive care unit would never end; time seeming to move in slow motion.  And yet now, it is merely a distant memory.  

I am so proud of the boy he is becoming.  He acts and talks and runs and jumps [and screams and cries] just like any normal, healthy two year old does.  

To see him interact with other children, or to watch as he thoughtfully cleans up his toys, or to hear his excitement about the plane in the sky or the train driving by, you would never know the difficulties he faced in his first 97 days on earth. 

He loves to follow his big sisters lead, and he loves to dote on his sweet baby doll.  One day, they will know just how blessed they are to have a brother like him.

I am so blessed to be his momma, and we are so very proud of his endurance and strength!!
