Yes - today our new son turns 1! I'm so happy he was able to be home in time. but it is a bitter sweet day. I just can't help but think of his birth mother and what she sacrificed for the love of this little boy? What she did - I can't even begin to imagine in May 2011! She loved her son so much - that she did what she felt was best for him! But I have to wonder - where is she today? is she thinking of her little guy? I know they are on a different calender - heck even a different year right now - what is it 2006 now? Anyhow - they don't really celebrate birthdays - but still. I just will always be thankful to this woman and her family - where ever they are - with the help of our God - he brought our families together by this little boy and our lives are connected even if we will never meet! I am thankful for them - our family is complete. It was perfect before and it is just finally a Family of 4! A Table for 4! I love it.
Yesterday we celebrated with papa, grandma Mary, Uncle Marcus and Aunt Stacey! It was a great day! Curt was not sure about his cake at first - but then was like - OH YEAH - this is yummy! He was so sweet. Even got into opening presents - with the help of his big brother Nate! On top of the Easter festivities - he had fun! Its funny how the packaging or paper is sometimes more exciting. I'll work to post pictures later.
But today - I love my family and my two sons so much! I can't wait to celebrate with all of them - as we request the table for 4 tonight!
