4-Year-Old Boys...



4-Year-Old- Boys are fantastic! Today was Hunter's 4th birthday. It seems like he was just
born yesterday. Time definitely moves at an accelerated rate once you have kids. He had a
really fun and event filled day. He was the leader today at school where they also had a parent
tea with a special performance of the kids singing. We took him out to lunch at his favorite place
to eat and went shopping for some things for his party on Sunday. Olivia and Gryffin cooperated

the whole day and are now sleeping soundly because of their big day out. When we finally got
home, Tom had prepared a treasure hunt with a map and a flashlight for Hunter to find his gifts
around the house. He had a blast and as delirious as he was from his big day, he still managed to
stay awake for a whole movie(I, of course, fell asleep).

My little boy is growing up so fast. Every day he gets smarter and more ready to take on the
world. He still tells me he loves me 1000 times a day. 4-year-old boys are really fantastic...

New Beginings


I've never ventured into the blogging world until today. I always kept a journal when I was young but stopped in my early 20's. After the birth of my first son, Hunter Orion, I vowed to resume my journal writing but simply never got around to it. Here I am four years and two more kids later doing what I was meant to do...write about it.

This is a picture of Hunter and me, just before the delivery of my twins. I was nearly in tears as my mom took the picture just thinking that this would be the last photo taken of us when Hunter was an only child, my baby.
