My Birthday Has Never Meant So Much

Thinking about my "birth" day this year has been a completely different experience. Thinking about what happened 26 years ago today - the anticipation, excitement and anxiousness my parents must have felt...

I was so small...


Parenting was completely new to mom and dad...


Grand-parenting was completely new to all my grandparents...


They didn't know if a girl or boy was coming...


They were so young... (I'm so young right?)


From my perspective they were so prepared...


I'm so excited for the above moments. In a few short months Jetty and I will be the parents. That's all I can really think about today...

  4. Happy (belated) Birthday Mel. You brought tears to my eyes. I have a little habit of checking in on you and how everything is going with your pregnancy, partly because I cant wait to go through this stage in my life and you express your excitement so wonderfully (Note: if any of my family members see this... by the above, I do not mean that we are trying right now). Have a great day!
