Happy birthday, Owen!

Saturday, March 13th, 2010 | Thoughts

My little boy turned six this week. His party is in 15 minutes and pretty soon, we’ll be overrun with excited boys and girls, cake will be devoured and presents unwrapped. And when all of the dust settles, he’ll sigh with contentment and give me a hug and tell me he loves me. Then he’ll run off and do what boys do–grow up, way too fast. *Sigh*

You’ve given me so much joy, Owen, and even though it hurts me to see how quickly you are growing up, I love to watch the years go by, seeing you become who you were made to be. I love being your mom! May you always be sensitive and caring, full of joy in the little things as well as the big ones. May you love God and serve him all of the days of your life, and may you always find rest in the shadow of his wings.

Then…

And now…

Happy Birthday to Owen!!!

Sigh, they ARE growing too fast but on the other hand I’m happy that I have the chance to discover the world around with them every day. Being SAHM was the best decision we’ve made and I know you feel the same way
