Happy Birthday

July 6, 2006

My son James won't remember his second birthday, although his mother probably took pictures of it to save in a scrapbook.

But at least he enjoyed the presents this time as he opened a box of three balls and played with his new car.

The kids were gone a week and while for a day or so that's a relief from responsibility, soon the house seems too quiet.

And it seemed like James aged a month in that week. He's talking more and walking faster.

He still has to compete for attention. Such is life being the baby of three. We even let him open his presents while big brother Jacob was napping. Probably the only way he'd be able to touch them first.

What a precious gift from God James is. He was in a hurry to get out and see this world, not even waiting for a doctor to get there.

And these first two years have really flown by.
