Dylan’s Day

by Meghan on March 14, 2011

Six years ago today, he entered the world.

He was my first baby. Born one month before my 1st wedding anniversary.

A good sleeper since birth, he is still our only child who asks to go to bed on a regular basis.

He is inquisitive and has been known to ask a thousand and one questions about things.

He is suspicious of new things, resistant to change, but (almost) always willing to have a good time.

He is a natural athlete.

Palm Springs - Golf

And a tender soul.

He is a great big brother.

Three of a kind

And a great, big goofball.

Dylan's 6th Birthday Party

He was my first.  He taught me everything I know about being a Mother.  He challenges me on a daily basis, but I’d never have it any other way.

Happy Birthday, Dude.  I love you to bits.

Sigh. I can’t believe it. I can’t believe they were three when we met. Love this post; it’s gorgeous.

I don’t know you or your kids personally, I just stop in from time to time to read, but this post brought tears to my eyes! I have a 7 year old firstborn son and I feel the exact same way. Happy birthday to your kid.

PS. I tried your crock pot chicken over the weekend and it was delish! I put the corn back in though. :-)
