it was a cold, snowy day....almost as cold as today...ok, that's for you, mom!really, i CANT believe the sweet baby in this picture is seven!! it just sounds so old to me! it was one of the most incredible days in my life...march 2, 2002. nothing ever felt so exciting, so natural, so miraculous than having dawson and bringing him home. i thought he was for sure the most beautiful baby anyone ever laid eyes on. he literally came into the world pretty. and i dont say that about every baby...stay tuned for dodge's story in december! :)

Rachel,
ReplyDeleteIt is amazing how fast the time goes... I once said if I had 3 wishes I'd wish for a pause button on life and instant record for those moments you want taped and the video camera is nowhere to be found. What a handsome guy! Luke turns double digits in less than a month. 10 almost makes me hyperventilate! Let's just take life a day at a time and love and soak in our wonderful and everyday lives!
love,
