One year ago, at 12:59 a.m. on April 13, our lives changed for the better in every imaginable way. Happy birthday, Jack!
People keep asking me if the past year has flown by quickly or dragged along slowly. I think both descriptions are true.
Peter and I experienced some very long days and nights when Jack was teething or struggling with yet another ear infection. But, on the other hand, I often found myself greeting Jack in the morning and wondering if he'd had an overnight growth spurt. He grew and changed so quickly!
Either way, it has been a really wonderful journey. We wouldn't change one second. The most difficult times -- which, truly, have been few and far between -- have been entirely outweighed by all the fun and excitement. Even now, for us, there is no better sound in the world than Jack's laugh.
Jack, we're so glad you're here!!
(The photo above was taken just a few short days after Jack was born; the photo below is one of our most recent shots of him... in the tub, of course:-)
Awww, Happy Birthday to Jack! Looks like you guys had fun celebrating!
