Five years ago today at this very minute I was in labor and delivery pushing. I cannot believe that was five years ago! At 1:27 pm on December 2, 2008 my life changed forever and I had a new very important purpose on this earth. I was a mommy. I had this tiny 6 lb 13 oz miracle to nurture and love and help grow. They say you never know the love your parents feel for you until you love a child and I fully believe that to be true. My life really began when I had you! Preston,
Wow! I cannot believe you are five years old! This day will forever be engrained in my mind and my heart. It's hard to believe you are the same baby I brought home from the hospital on the cold rainy day in December. You have grown into such a big kid! You know my phone number and address and are learning your bible verses left and right. You are strong and stubborn yet loving and oh so caring. You still love to give hugs and kisses and it will really make me sad when you grow up and don't want to anymore. I pray for you daily and will continue to pray for you to grow and be healthy in mind and body. I pray that you find and know The Lord and love and trust Him with all that you are and all that you have. You will make mistakes in life but know that I will always love you and I will always support you when you need it and pick you up when you fall. I will always remember you at this age. You have such an imagination and are so creative. You love superman right now and you also love all things transformers. I will always remember the smile on your face when you ran through your birthday door and the look of excitement when we saw the birthday garbage trucks on the way to school. I will love you forever my sweet sweet boy! Happy 5th birthday P! You will always be my favorite oldest child :)
Love you!
Mommy
